You're welcome. Weirdly, you can find the correspondence between the facility name and the facility number in "/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/sys/syslog.h" and not in a man page. (You can also find it in the IETF syslog RFC!) The ones that I keep in mind are 3 (daemons), 4 (auth), 10 (authpriv). I can't remember any other, although I /think/ that mail is 2. Run "journalctl -u <daemon>" (u for unit) to see the log for a specific service. "journalctl -u <daemon>" is the same as (or perhaps I should say "short for") "journalctl _SYSTEMD_UNIT=<daemon>.service". I don't know why you have to append ".service" to the latter but tab completion takes care of it anyway. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
