Sorry , my 1st post didn't have a subject, this is a repeat. ---------------------- Forwarded by Phillip Watts/austin/Nlynx on 03/05/2002 11:16 AM --------------------------- Phillip Watts 03/05/2002 11:50 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: I have an Eiger 2.2.16 that's probably pretty old. Probably LRP pre LEAF. I'm totally lost in the cron/freespace/log trimming scripts. But that doesn't really matter, I want to write my own scripts with my own mail routines. It seems that I need to restart syslog. Just deleteing the messages file doesn't seem to work. When I restart syslog everything is wonderful except that it logs to the console also. Which doesn't matter a lot in a router but its kinda irritating. I tried starting from /, starting it from a subshell, kernel message level 3 ( its the ip logging that really messes up the console) stopping ip logging until syslog restarted, nothing works. I tried the same thing on my RedHat development machine and got the same results. Something here I don't understand about syslogd or klogd. Any Ideas?
