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

Just add a second line with the same selectors, but a different action. Eg. *.err;kern.debug;auth.notice;mail.crit /dev/console *.err;kern.debug;auth.notice;mail.crit /var/log/console.critical Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

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.

Re: Syslog question
Add !news.notice to your /var/log/messages line. man syslog.conf as well, for your own sake. Kliment Andreev wrote: 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.

Change the /var/log/messages line so it looks like this: *.notice;kern.debug;lpr.info;mail.crit;news.err;local0.none /var/log/messages (sorry for the line break added by my MUA).
