Solaris 10 question on syslog.conf file
Hi, I have a question on /etc/syslog.conf file in Solaris 10. Below is a line taken from /etc/syslog.conf file and I know that the last field (operator) is where the logs gets outputted but how do I find out what the output file name format is going to be and which directory it gets outputted to? Code:
*.alert;kern.err;daemon.err operator Regards, Steve |

operator== A message is sent to the user on the console.
This looks like the default Sun /etc/syslog.conf setting. Consider changing operator to root,operator,< username you are usually logged on as, hopefully not root> Another suggestion - the syslog.conf defaults are not generally the best possible. Consider reading up on this at maybe a starter site: Syslog Configuration Examples |
