Thanks for your answer. We have pretty default /etc/syslog.conf: *.err;kern.warning;auth.notice;mail.crit /dev/console *.notice;authpriv.none;kern.debug;lpr.info;mail.crit;news.err /var/log/messages local7.* /var/log/dhcpd.log security.* /var/log/security auth.info;authpriv.info /var/log/auth.log mail.info /var/log/maillog lpr.info /var/log/lpd-errs ftp.info /var/log/xferlog cron.* /var/log/cron *.=debug /var/log/debug.log *.emerg * !ppp *.* /var/log/ppp.log !*
But I tried to comment lines with "*" and "/dev/console", didn't help. Ubuntu's rsyslog config is default too. These messages appear without any timestamp/hostname, so I thought they could be not from syslogd. Well, after killing syslogd they still appears. Also I tried to configure pam with unexisting module and after trying to connect, I got: AUTH-PAM: BACKGROUND: user 'user' failed to authenticate: Module is unknown So, any PAM error is broadcasted... > > gert -- Best regards, Sergey Urushkin
