According to I see, is necessary to force this facility in OpenBSD to use it, but in Debian GNU/Linux I do not see that it is specified in syslog.conf neither in /etc/init.d/sysklogd nor in /etc/default/syslogd. Apparently in GNU/Linux it is the other way around, to remove would be necessary it to force it in /etc/default/syslogd putting "-m 0" in variable SYSLOGD. Interesting... :-) Thanks for your speedy reply, Otto. Thanks also for your reply, Chris. I see that this only arrived to my from personal email but not to the mailing list/newsgroup. Check it, please. I hope that with "this is openbsd - we have manpages that are useful" you have not meant that manpages of GNU/Linux is not useful. We must be brothers :-D Regards, Daniel iD8DBQFIceIaZpa/GxTmHTcRAoOdAJ4n3NjSeVJbZpJng3Q2+FoaV2yfiQCbBwcw TrhwgfgP29s+tn4O+hjiZuQ= =AEqr -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
