Huh. I disabled that because (containers') rsyslog reported it couldn't read from the kernel log. Maybe you've accidentally left containers with read-access to arbitrary devices? # These are: null zero random urandom tty* tty console # ptmx pts/* rtc0 lxc.cgroup.devices.deny = a lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 1:3 rw lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 1:5 rw lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 1:8 rw lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 1:9 rw lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 4:* rw lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 5:0 rw lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 5:1 rw lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 5:2 rw lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 136:* rw lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 254:0 r And in the container, I configure rsyslog thusly: cat >/etc/dhcp3/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/lxc-postinst <<EOF case \$reason in BOUND|RENEW|REBIND|REBOOT) :;; *) return;; esac exec >/dev/console 2>&1 </dev/null rm -f /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/lxc-postinst # delete self # [...] perl -p0 -i -e 's:(.|\\\n)*/dev/xconsole\$::' /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf sed -i '/ModLoad imklog\|KLogPath/ s/^/#/' /etc/rsyslog.conf etckeeper commit "Suppress noise in logs." sed -i '/RSYSLOG_TraditionalFileFormat/ s/^/#/' /etc/rsyslog.conf cat >/etc/rsyslog.d/20-to-logserv.conf <<-EOT # Enable RFC 3339 (ns granularity) timestamps in CC'd logs. \\\$ActionForwardDefaultTemplate RSYSLOG_ForwardFormat # CC all logs to logserv. *.* @logserv EOT etckeeper commit "Enable RFC 3339 timestamps in logs." restart rsyslog # [...] EOF ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Protect Your Site and Customers from Malware Attacks Learn about various malware tactics and how to avoid them.
