Hello,
has something changed in CentOS 5 logging behavior? I get no entries in /var/log/messages when I start or stop services (httpd, ssh, etc.). My /etc/syslog.conf is the installation default:
# Log all kernel messages to the console. # Logging much else clutters up the screen. #kern.* /dev/console
# Log anything (except mail) of level info or higher. # Don't log private authentication messages! *.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none /var/log/messages
# The authpriv file has restricted access. authpriv.* /var/log/secure
# Log all the mail messages in one place. mail.* -/var/log/maillog
# Log cron stuff cron.* /var/log/cron
# Everybody gets emergency messages *.emerg *
# Save news errors of level crit and higher in a special file. uucp,news.crit /var/log/spooler
# Save boot messages also to boot.log local7.* /var/log/boot.log
Any Ideas?
Best regards
Frank Jahn
