My isc_dhcpd logs are kind of chatty, and I'd like to send them

their own log. I tried appending the following to syslogd.conf:
!dhcpd
*.*
/var/log/dhcpd
This works, but the dhcpd messages still appear in
/var/log/daemon as
well.
Shouldn't this actually be:
!!dhcpd
*.* /var/log/dhcpd
!*
at the start of the file? At least, that's my reading of
syslog.conf(5): the two exclamation marks will cause a match on
'dhcpd' to _only_ result in the listed action (with no further
evaluation of the file, and thus no further opportunities for
logging to be done), and the '!*' means that further evaluation
will happen if there _isn't_ such a match.
