-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hello. I have a question that's been nagging at me for quite some time, and it's finally gotten to the point where I need to ask somebody.
I am using the standard slink syslog.conf file, and I have bind installed to provide name service for my local network. Every hour, named does some housekeeping work (clears its cache, etc), the output of which is processed by syslog. Syslog sends it to /dev/xconsole and /var/log/daemon.log. I would like to send these messages to a different file, becase they are cluttering the daemon.log file and making it difficult to locate the more interesting information. I have read man 5 syslog.conf and man 8 sysklogd, but I'm still not sure what changes need to be made. I believe I need to alter the priority of the messages that go to daemon.log, but how do I know what priority these messages are? And how do I know the priority of the messages that I _want_ sent to daemon.log (specifically, connection attempts logged by tcp wrappers and tcplogd)? If I discover that they're the same priority, am I out of luck? Thanks in advance to the person who can enlighten me. noah PGP public key available at http://lynx.dac.neu.edu/home/httpd/n/nmeyerha/mail.html or by 'finger -l [EMAIL PROTECTED]' -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBN6uW4IdCcpBjGWoFAQG6/AP/TrX5Cwhb+C1dCq8DOjYpfX7FmCh/uCvP MS/SmLbWp+Lp8or+E2E0NgtFi+Wflolj1/kDnRMfBomICzUe8qS8JhZgDfrxH6m4 syuprRHv6eTBZfMF7e+tg90l/ILMZXhg4KafHWKTaVfwF1ReekCjlnPTRse9lWIy w8Op31/M19E= =oHHm -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
