I realize that this is not specific to syslog-ng, but was not sure where to turn.
Starting with a fairly recent linux kernel (perhaps 2.6.30) the messages sent via /dev/kmsg have the format
[167007.168017] ... some text ...
where these numbers seem to be seconds.microseconds since the last boot.
Is there any way to configure the linux kernel to NOT put this detail in messages?
Thanks.
At least it used to be possible to do so. Try looking here in the kernel configuration utilities. Perhaps if you read the code you might find a sysctl to do it without rebuilding. Kernel hacking [*] Show timing information on printks Matthew.
