Log file questions/confusion
Hello,
I'm starting a new thread for this issue to hopefully make it easier to follow in the future.
I'm trying to configure logging on my box. I've installed knoppix 6.4.4 on my hdd.
Based on the recommendation (or possibly my misinterpretation of the recommendation) of Mr. Shultz:
.. there are no loggings to /var/log with Knoppix by default. To change this behaviour rename the file '/etc/syslog-knoppix.conf'.
So I renamed /etc/syslog.conf to /etc/syslog-orig.conf and renamed /etc/syslog-knoppix.conf to /etc/syslog.conf, but I still don't see anything much in my var/log directory, even after a reboot:
Code:
knoppix@Microknoppix:/var/log$ ls /var/log
ConsoleKit apt iptraf pppstatus wtmp
Xorg.0.log cups news samba
Xorg.0.log.old dpkg.log partimage smail
alternatives.log fsck pm-powersave.log speech-dispatcher
knoppix@Microknoppix:/var/log$
My /etc/syslog-orig.conf file was much longer than the /etc/syslog-knoppix.conf that's now my syslog.conf file.
Did I not do something right?
Thanks,
Charlie
