I'm running a powerdns-recursor server and I configured the syslog
part to log into the facility 5.
I used the default configuration with the tree files and put them in
/var/log/pdns :
local5.info <http://local5.info>
-/var/log/pdns/pdns.info <http://pdns.info> local5.warn
-/var/log/pdns/pdns.warn local5.err
/var/log/pdns/pdns.err
It works well.
However I can see that pdns.info <http://pdns.info> and pdns.warn are
almost identical, both around 7.9Mo.
A diff shows very few lines in thoses 7.9Mo files, like 20 or
something like that.
I think this is not useful to have two files almost identical.
Did I miss something ?
Yes :-)
local5.=info
local5.=warn
local5.err
if you want *only* those levels in those files. Otherwise you get that
level and the levels above too. In other words, without this, all
"warn" and "err" messages will appear in the "info" file too.
Leave local5.err like it is, so you get higher levels like critical and
emergency too.
