By the way, I don't recommend using syslog-ng on an openSUSE system that has systemd and journal. The reason is that syslog-ng reads the journal files. If the journal is stopped or disabled, syslog does not work.
Correction: not stopping the journal daemon, but disabling it writing log files, temporary or permanent.
In the default config comes with openSUSE, the same applies rsyslog, Carlos.
No, it doesn't.
I did test it before I wrote my reply, if you stop journald, rsyslog and syslog-ng both stop logging. Anyway, if you don't want journald writing to disk, but you still want syslog working, use "storage=volatile" and "forwardtosyslog=yes" in /etc/systemd/journald.conf -- Per Jessen, Zürich (23.1°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
