Hi All, If the file permission is not specified in syslog-ng.conf file then it uses the file permission as default which is 600 . I noticed it and want to confirm this behavior of syslog-ng . Also if we define the permission as perm(644) in options tag of syslog-ng.conf then does that permission is set for all the files ? Please provide your inputs as I am understanding this utility.
