syslog question
I've configured my Apache process to send the ErrorLog to the syslog:local5 facility. In my syslog.conf file, I have: !httpd *.* /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log to catch these log messages. This works great, but these messages are also going into my /var/log/messages which has: *.notice;authpriv.none;kern.debug;lpr.info;mail.crit;news.err /var/log/messag es Apache sends to local5.notice. I have tried add local5.none to this line which according to the man page is suppose to disable all local5 messages, but they still come through. Is there something I'm missing here?

Re: syslog question
For some reason, switching Apache to use local3 instead of local5 and updating syslog.conf correspondingly correct this. Weird.

syslog question
Hi, I've this entry in syslog.conf (which is default): *.err;kern.debug;auth.notice;mail.crit /dev/console I would like also to log those messages in a file called for example: /var/log/console.critical (I want both, /dev/console and the log file!) How should I modify the above line to achive this?

Hi, If you read further down in the file you will see this: # uncomment this to log all writes to /dev/console to /var/log/console.log #console.info/var/log/console.log Just do as it says to log to a file as_well_as console.

Syslog question
I have the following in /etc/syslog.conf. Notice lines (1) and (3). I want to log news.notice ONLY in /var/log/news/news.notice but instead of that I have the same output both in /var/log/news/news.notice and /var/log/messages. If I remove *.notice from line (3) I am afraid that I would not log any other *.notice messages. (1) news.notice /var/log/news/news.notice *.err;kern.debug;auth.notice;mail.crit /dev/console (3) *.notice;kern.debug;lpr.info;mail.crit /var/log/messages What should I modify, before I kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog.pid`.

syslog question
I have these lines in my syslog.conf: *.notice;kern.debug;lpr.info;mail.crit;news.err /var/log/messages !ipmon *.* /var/log/ipflog The first line says send *.notice, kern.debug...etc to messages. The second line starts a block specifically referring to the program name ipmon. The third line says send all errors from ipmon to ipflog. I'm getting duplicate logging for ipf in both messages and ipflog. It's because ipmon sends the syslog messages at the LOG_NOTICE level. Is there any way to say in the first line send *.notice except where programname=ipmon to /var/log/messages? I read through the syslog.conf man page, but there doesn't seem to be any way to do this. I was just curious if anyone else has configured something like this in syslog?
