Whenever a user uses su I get the following error messages in /var/log/messages:

I have a few physical servers and a few virtual servers all running RHEL 6.1. All of the servers were installed the same way with the same packages, but I'm only receiving these messages on the virtual servers.
I've searched google, and found a few answers, but nothing I have been able to use so far. From what I understand the fprintd daemon is used for a fingerprint reader which I have no use for on my virtual servers.
One solution I read on another site stated
Quote:
fprintd is a daemon that allows the function of libfprint over DBUS. Which is to support fingerprint scanner authentication. I am assuming that your vm does not have a fingerprint scanner so this is probably not a big deal for you. If you want the errors to quit I would remove fprintd unless you plan to use fingerprint scanning
Can someone please tell me how to remove fprintd or some other way to get these messages to stop? Thanks in advance

The /var/adm/messages in Solaris seem to log more system messages/errors compared to /var/log/messages in Linux.
I checked the log level in Linux and they seem OK.
Is there any other log file that contains the messages or is it just that Linux doesn't log great many things? (2 Replies)

The /var/log/messages folder grows exponentially - in 3 hours it went up from 70 K to 6GB.

systemd-sysctl.service
SYSTEMD-SYSCTL.SERVICE(8) systemd-sysctl.service SYSTEMD-SYSCTL.SERVICE(8)NAME
systemd-sysctl.service, systemd-sysctl - Configure kernel parameters at boot
SYNOPSIS
/lib/systemd/systemd-sysctl [OPTIONS...] [CONFIGFILE...]
systemd-sysctl.service
DESCRIPTION
systemd-sysctl.service is an early boot service that configures sysctl(8) kernel parameters by invoking /lib/systemd/systemd-sysctl.
When invoked with no arguments, /lib/systemd/systemd-sysctl applies all directives from configuration files listed in sysctl.d(5). If one
or more filenames are passed on the command line, only the directives in these files are applied.
In addition, --prefix= option may be used to limit which sysctl settings are applied.
See sysctl.d(5) for information about the configuration of sysctl settings. After sysctl configuration is changed on disk, it must be
written to the files in /proc/sys before it takes effect. It is possible to update specific settings, or simply to reload all
configuration, see Examples below.
OPTIONS --prefix=
Only apply rules with the specified prefix.
-h, --help
Print a short help text and exit.
--version
Print a short version string and exit.
EXAMPLES
Example 1. Reset all sysctl settings
systemctl restart systemd-sysctl
Example 2. View coredump handler configuration
# sysctl kernel.core_pattern
kernel.core_pattern = |/libexec/abrt-hook-ccpp %s %c %p %u %g %t %P %I
Example 3. Update coredump handler configuration
# /lib/systemd/systemd-sysctl --prefix kernel.core_pattern
This searches all the directories listed in sysctl.d(5) for configuration files and writes /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern.
Example 4. Update coredump handler configuration according to a specific file
# /lib/systemd/systemd-sysctl 50-coredump.conf
This applies all the settings found in 50-coredump.conf. Either /etc/sysctl.d/50-coredump.conf, or /run/sysctl.d/50-coredump.conf, or
/usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-coredump.conf will be used, in the order of preference.
See sysctl(8) for various ways to directly apply sysctl settings.
