#; FreeBSD 4.4, 4.5, 4.6
#; Solaris 2.6, 2.7

#; Notes: Syslog requires TAB delimitation between facility and
#; destination. Log files MUST exist prior to the start of
#; syslogd. This file will be reread by sending a SIGHUP to
#; syslogd.
#;
#; Recommended file permissions:
#;
#; 0640 /var/log/messages
#; 0640 /var/log/daemon.log
#; 0640 /var/log/cron.log
#; 0600 /var/log/auth.log
#; 0600 /var/log/critical.log
#;
#; If you do not audit your logs, the time spent putting this
#; in place will be wasted. Audit logs regularly!!

#; Send general messages to the console.
*.err;kern.debug /dev/console
auth.notice;authpriv.none /dev/console
#; The "Readers Digest" version of critical system failures that
#; management staff, at least, should pay attention to.
*.err;*.crit;*.emerg /var/log/critical.log
#; Next, we define where most daemons and applications
*.notice /var/log/messages
#; Do not log auth/authpriv messages here; rather log them to
#; a separate file for processing by security staff.
auth,authpriv.none /var/log/messages
auth,authpriv.debug /var/log/auth.log
cron.info /var/log/cron.log
news,kern,lpr,daemon,ftp,mail.info /var/log/daemon.log
#; For more critical errors tell root. Keep user-land messages out of
#; the way.
*.err;user.none root
#; In emergencies, wall the users. Note we restrict user-land messages
#; from being able to do this as it might annoy those logged in.
*.emerg;user.none *
#; The definition of "loghost" should be placed in /etc/hosts to
#; prevent DNS spoofing. A sample entry of this follows.
#;
#; 10.197.213.1 loghost.depaul.edu loghost
#;
#; Send all informational messages, critical warnings and emergency
#; conditions to the remote log server EXCEPT for authpriv messages
#; that can be intercepted from the network.
#;
#; Uncomment out the following if you have a loghost defined and
#; wish to log to such a location. Note that messages sent over the
#; network MAY EXPOSE sensitive information or data. Beware.
#*.err;*.emerg;*.crit;auth,authpriv.debug @loghost
