have this debug.log?


-rw---   1 root  wheel 0 May  8  2005 debug.log

same date as I made the server

excerpt from the syslog.conf

*.=debug/var/log/debug.log

your right there is an entry for the debug in the syslog.conf

however Im pretty sure this file is default FreeBSD


It turns out that you are right for 5.4, although that change has since been 
backed out:


http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/etc/syslog.conf

...in the most current version, if I'm following the branches correctly.  In 
either event, it's fine to discard debug-priority logging, unless actually 
debugging something.

No such file exists by default under FreeBSD.  Certainly you can turn it 
off.
See /etc/syslog.conf, you want to comment out the line mentioning 
debug.log.


And then kill and restart syslogd...

debug.log questions

2005-11-07 Thread Sean Murphy

I'm running FreeBSD 5.4 with sendmail that was included with FreeBSD.

There is a debug.log that I have questions about.

Is the debug.log just for mail troubleshooting?

Can I turn it off or reduce the amount of logging?

in /var/log/debug.log i see the following


Nov  7 15:00:12 muse2 ipop3d[34683]: pop3s SSL service init from 172.x.x.x
Nov  7 15:00:12 muse2 imapd[34684]: imaps SSL service init from 172.x.x.x

  These should be in the maillog file right?
I did some searching on google and I found that these are just clients 
checking there mail.



Thanks
