Hello all, I'm a newbie to syslog-ng, and am trying to convert our local servers from sysklogd to syslog-ng... I'm having a bit of a problem, though... I might just be blind to the answer of this question, though... It seems pretty simple... In the syslog.conf file that is currently in place (the default redhat one), there's a line that reads:
*.info;mail.none;news.none;authpriv.none /var/log/messages
Seems logical... How do I do the same thing in syslog-ng? The syslog.conf manpages state:
The keyword none stands for no priority of the given facility.
So, if I'm understanding this right, syslog was receiving a facility name, but no level/priority setting? And this mapped to "none." Does syslog-ng provide a similar thing? Or do these daemons really send out the facility and level/priority, but it's some default one? Thanks for any help in advance... I'm sure this is an easy thing to fix, but just don't know the internals of syslog or syslog-ng very well yet... I've always just used the default configuration and left things alone... Thanks in advance, Brad
