Just now checked. Seems all the lines are commented in the server.

# Each line must consist of two parts:-
#
# 1) A selector to determine the message priorities to which the
# line applies
# 2) An action.
#
# Each line can contain an optional part:-
#
# 3) Rotation.
#
# The fields must be separated by one or more tabs or spaces.
#
# format:
#
# <msg_src_list> <destination> [rotate [size <size> k|m] [files <files>] [time <time> h|d|w|m|y] [compress] [archive <archive>]]
#
# where <msg_src_list> is a semicolon separated list of <facility>.<priority>
# where:
#
# <facility> is:
# * - all (except mark)
# mark - time marks
# kern,user,mail,daemon, auth,... (see syslogd(AIX Commands Reference))
#
# <priority> is one of (from high to low):
# emerg/panic,alert,crit,err(or),warn(ing),notice,info,debug
# (meaning all messages of this priority or higher)
#
# <destination> is:
# /filename - log to this file
# username[,username2...] - write to user(s)
# @hostname - send to syslogd on this machine
# * - send to all logged in users
#
# [rotate [size <size> k|m] [files <files>] [time <time> h|d|w|m|y] [compress] [archive <archive>]] is:
# If <destination> is a regular file and the word "rotate" is
# specified, then the <destination> is limited by either
# <size> or <time>, or both <size> and <time>. The <size> causes
# the <destination> to be limited to <size>, with <files> files
# kept in the rotation. The <time> causes the <destination> to be rotated after
# <time>. If both <time> and <size> are specified then logfiles
# will be rotated once the the logfile size exceeds the <size>
# or after <time>, whichever is earlier. The rotated filenames
# are created by appending a period and a number to <destination>,
# starting with ".0".
#
# If compress option is specified then the logfile names will be
# generated with a ".Z" extension. The files keyword will be applicable
# to the logfiles which are currently under rotation. For example
# if we specify the compress option then only fileis with ".Z" extension
# will be under rotation and number of such files will be limited by
# <files> files. Any logfiles with an extension other than ".Z"
# will not be under the rotation scheme and thus will not be within
# the limit of <files> files. Similarly if we remove the compress
# option then the files which have been generated with ".Z" extension
# will no longer be the part of rotation scheme and will not be limited
# by the <files> files.
#
# The minimum size that can be specified is 10k, the minimum
# number of files that can be specified is 2. The default
# size is 1m (meg) and the default for <files> is unlimited.
# Therefore, if only "rotate" is specified, the log will be
# rotated with <size> = 1m.
# The compress option means that rotated log files that are not
# in use will be compressed.
# The archive option will save rotated log files that are not
# in use to <archive>.
# The default is not to rotate log files.
#
# example:
# "mail messages, at debug or higher, go to Log file. File must exist."
# "all facilities, at debug and higher, go to console"
# "all facilities, at crit or higher, go to all users"
# mail.debug /usr/spool/mqueue/syslog
# *.debug /dev/console
# *.crit *
# *.debug /tmp/syslog.out rotate size 100k files 4
# *.crit /tmp/syslog.out rotate time 1d
Hello Everyone,
