Syslog.conf: looking for a simple answer on a simple question
Cheers!
In /etc/syslog.conf, if an error type is not specified, is it logged anywhere (most preferable is it logged to /var/log/messages) or not?
To be more precise I am interested in error and critical level messages. At default these errors are not specified in syslog.conf, and I need to know if they are still logged or not.
I hope its a pretty simple question to get a simple answer
Just asking because the manuals I checked did not say "everything else that is not specified will be logged in whateveryoulike.log", so I am unsure.
Big thanks
