/dev/console and syslog

Hi, I'm having an issue where if I have syslog output something to /dev/console, it comes back to syslog again as a kernel: message. I've verified that this is definitely something with /dev/console, since even if I do : valhalla# echo STRAIGHT TO CONSOLE /dev/console I can

redirect /dev/console to a file

I'd like to redirect /dev/console to some file that can be read by the xrootconsole port. Is this ambition feasible? I like the functionality of xconsole; but it's not very pretty. == Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, for all his works are truth, and his
