I am trying to move my postgresql (v7.4) logging out of the syslog and into a 
postgres.log. I want to do this so I can
turn on logging full bore and have logrotate keep the logs to a reasonable size.

 

Here is my problem. Postgresql v7.4 will either log to STDOUT, syslog or none. 
I have been looking at syslog.conf and
trying to set this up and I have what looks good, but I still get the entries 
in the syslog. Here is what I have for
syslog.conf

 

Local0.*     /var/log/postgresql/postgres.log

 

I also tries this with cron and that did not work either. Is this even 
possible? Can I redirect entries out of the
syslog into another file, or does this facility only copy the entries to 
another file, while maintaining them in the
syslog.
