I suppose I "lucked out" because I just want "messages" which is conveniently pre-configured to mean /var/log/messages, and /var/log/messages has the messages I'm interested in because the app I'm interested in uses a basic logger -t <servicename> command to write there. It also seems there are more directories for the scripts and config files than necessary... when a directory contains only another directory, it makes me wonder: Do we really need this other level?
