I tried excluding it via /etc/syslog,conf, but I don't know which
facility.priority it is being logged with.
How can I find out?
I recently had much fun (sarcasm) doing this. The only way I could find
was to create separate logfiles for each facility:
auth.* -/root/tmp/auth
authpriv.* -/root/tmp/authpriv
cron.* -/root/tmp/cron
[ ... many more as such ... ]
After I found out what facility was logging, I commented out the above
lines and added priority lines for that facility:
daemon.=emerg -/root/tmp/daemon.emerg
daemon.=alert -/root/tmp/daemon.alert
daemon.=crit -/root/tmp/daemon.crit
[ ... many more as such ... ]
After I found out what priority the logging had, I commented out those
lines but left them in place in case I'd ever need them again.
Read "man 3 syslog" to get the lists of facilities and levels.
Now, for those programmers and documentation writers who fail to reveal
what facilities and priorities their software applications are using, a
virtual spanking:
