https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=256674 ------- Comment #1 from mt@novell.com 2007-03-23 05:14 MST ------- Do you mean into /var/log/messages? I don't see any difference; both log debug messages to /var/log/messages. /etc/syslog.conf: *.*;mail.none;news.none -/var/log/messages /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf: filter f_iptables { facility(kern) and match("IN=") and match("OUT="); }; filter f_messages { not facility(news, mail) and not filter(f_iptables); }; -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
