# Restrict a Container's Syscalls with seccomp — The log path on your computer might be different from "/var/log/syslog"

> tail -f /var/log/syslog | grep 'http-echo' Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```text You should already see some logs of syscalls made by `http-echo`, and if you run `curl` again inside the control plane container you will see more output written to the log.

Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```text
You should already see some logs of syscalls made by `http-echo`, and if you run `curl` again inside
the control plane container you will see more output written to the log.
