Hello. This is "kern" facility. # touch /var/log/dmesg
And then add "kern.* /var/log/dmesg" to your "syslog.conf". Restart syslog and anything printed by kernel will go to /var/log/dmesg But note that when booting, kernel does not have access to syslog, so it stores messages in its internal buffer (which you can read by ``dmesg``) and after boot, its contents are written to /var/run/dmesg.boot man syslog.conf man dmesg PS: when adding new log file, make sure to configure its rotation using newsysliog On Mon, Apr 16, 2018 at 7:14 PM, sven falempin <sven.falem...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear readers, > > This question is probably answer somewhere > but i m afraid to follow any non openBSD style answer. > > How do it get DMESG messages in my log ( like when a usb is attached ) > > syslog *.* does not contain them right ? > > Best, > > -- > -- > ------------------------------------------------------------ > --------------------------------------------------------- > Knowing is not enough; we must apply.
