Hi Dan, The next important question is that do you see all sshd log messages in /var/log/messages or just some of them. I see two kind of sshd related log message: [2021-04-07T12:29:43.875056] Incoming log entry; line='<38>Apr 7 12:29:43 sshd[30745]: Accepted keyboard-interactive/pam for dan from XXXX port 40747 ssh2' [2021-04-07T12:29:43.878136] Incoming log entry; line='<86>Apr 7 12:29:43 sshd[30745]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user dan(uid=1001) by (uid=0)' As the two has different values in <>, at least one of them is differ from auth/info. By the way <38> is security(4)/info and <86> is security(10)/info. So both are security/auth message in some way but still different facilities (4 and 6) which is called as auth(4) and authpriv(10) within syslog-ng. On Wed, 2021-04-07 at 12:35 -0600, Dan Egli wrote:
Okay. I captured a couple of minutes worth of syslog-ng running. It's too big to post (1.5MB) so I put it up on my web server. You can see it at: https://www.newideatest.site/syslog-out On 4/7/2021 12:07 PM, SZIGETVÁRI János wrote:
Hello Dan,
I believe that Bazsi (Balázs) wasn't really looking for the startup messages about the config being parsed, but instead about the debug/trace output of the log processing pipeline. There he would be able to check which filters were run against a certain message (its actual content too), and what result those filters returned. I think that's what he's primarily after.

Syslog-ng is NOT complaining about my config at all. I've included the output from the -Fedv below. Other than what I would call "routine" errors in the scl section, no complaints. --------------------------------- [2021-04-07T11:52:21.151347] Processing @include statement; filename='scl.conf', include-path='/etc/syslog- ng:/usr/share/syslog-ng/include' [2021-04-07T11:52:21.151420] Starting to read include file;

can you start syslog-ng in the foreground and look at the startup messages?
e.g. stop the background process (via systemd or your init system), and run syslog-ng from a root prompt:
# /usr/sbin/syslog-ng -Fedv
This should start syslog-ng in the foreground (-F), direct internal messages to stderr (-e), and enable debug/verbose messages. Then look at the messages to see if syslog-ng is complaining about your configuration or not.
Cheers, Bazsi

Don't know how that slipped in there. And syslog-ng never mentioned it. It's fixed now, and the behavior is unchanged. sshd messages still appear in /var/log/messages.

No joy. I tried swapping it different ways.
filter -> source -> destination = combined source -> filter -> destination = combined
Here's what my config looks like now, after the second variant:
@version: 3.30
@include "scl.conf"
options { threaded(yes); chain_hostnames(no); stats_freq(43200); mark_freq(3600); };
source src { system(); internal(); };
filter samba { program("samba"); }; filter ssh_messages { facility("AUTH") and level("INFO"); }; filter syslog { not filter("ssh_messages") and not filter("samba"); };
destination console { file("/dev/tty12"); }; destination messages { file("/var/log/messages"); }; destination sshd_log { file("/var/log/sshd/sshd.log"); }; destination smb_logs { file("/var/log/samba/samba.log"); };
log { source(src); filter(samba); destination(smb_logs); flags(final); );
You are using a closing paren instead of a brace. This config has a syntax error. Possibly syslog-ng falled back to the original config, once it reported a syntax error.
log { source(src); filter(ssh_messages); destination(sshd_log); flags(final); }; log { source(src); filter(syslog); destination(console); }; log { source(src); filter(syslog); destination(messages); };
Still, sshd messages are appearing in /var/log/messages.
