Hi, I've configured:
log_facility=LOG_LOCAL0

# don't log messages with LOG_LOCAL0 in /var/log/syslog anymore *.*;auth,authpriv.none,local0.none -/var/log/syslog # # log messages with LOG_LOCAL0 in /var/log/ser.log local0.* -/var/log/ser.log
as it appears in http://docs.huihoo.com/openser/tutorials/ser-syslog/ar01s06.html
OpenSer then logs in /var/log/openser, true, but it still logs in /var/log/syslog. ¿?¿ Obviously I don't want OpenSer logs appearing in /var/log/syslog.
Hello Inaki,
AFAIK some versions of syslogd use a different syntax for the configuration files. Perhaps the "*.*" rule part catches all the log messages, regardless the later restrictions?
Cheers,
Henning
