Operating Systems Linux SuSE Some error messages in var/log/messages Post 302942497 by rbatte1 on Wednesday 29th of April 2015 09:02:20 AM

Can you trace where they are from, e.g. source IP address. Is it one of your company's or coming in externally? If it is external and you don't allow any external ssh or sftp etc. in, then you better speak with those that manage your company firewall.

If it's internal, then you have a local source to contact.

/var/adm/messages vs /var/log/messages

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)
