Of course the latter is only relevant if you are using logrotate.

Hi Mark.. I made the proper changes and still not working.. :(

# vi /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf
options {
   chain_hostnames(off);
   sync(0);
   perm(0640);
   dir_perm(0750);

source src { unix-stream(/dev/log); internal(); pipe(/proc/kmsg); };

destination messages { file(/var/log/messages); };
destination daemon { file(/var/log/daemon.log); };
filter f_daemon { facility(daemon); };

destination console_all { file(/dev/tty12); };

log { source(src); filter(f_daemon); destination(daemon); };
log { source(src); destination(messages); };
log { source(src); destination(console_all); };


What is wrong?

[gentoo-user] Daemons log on Gentoo

2006-06-03 Thread Leandro Melo de Sales

Hi,

  I can't find /var/log/daemon... Every time a service is stopped or
started I want to log it on /dev/log/daemon. In addition, I can't see
it on /var/log/message. I tried to stop apache for instance and the
system didn't log this event in /var/log/message, why?

Look in /var/log/everything/ and see if anything is in there.  One of
the logger puts it in there.

Sometimes people fall in love, but a little bit of them really love
or find a truth love. Or sometimes they find it but for some reason
they let love pass without live it intensely. This is the free-well.

Not after I went and looked at mine.  I use syslog-ng myself and I
thought it logged all that.  I'm sure it used to but it may have been
changed or it may be a option you have to enable now.  You may want to
look at metalog but I didn't see where it logged that either, unless it
had a error of some kind anyway.  I have used both before.

Hmmm, depends on your logger, syslog-ng does stuff like that, check
its man page...
