So, I've looked here: http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/imklog.html I've added this option to /etc/rsyslog.conf: $ConsoleLogLevel 14 And reloaded/restarted rsyslogd and they still don't seem to show kernel messages in /var/log/kern.log I did '# echo test > /dev/kmsg', and nothing shows up in kern.log/syslog. --chris j arges > David Lang > _______________________________________________ > rsyslog mailing list > http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog > http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ > What's up with rsyslog?
