Hi,

I'm having a little problem configuring syslog.conf to log all kernel
messages of priority notice or higher.

In /etc/syslog.conf I have:

kern.notice                          /var/log/kernel.log

The file kernel.log was created by root with touch and the permissions
are:

195   0 -rw-r--r--   1 root  bin         0 Oct 22 15:15 kernel.log

But I'm not managing to log any messages in kernel.log.

I tried to use logger with:

#logger -p kern.notice Testing...

And I log the message in messages (because of *.notice in syslog.conf)
but nothing goes to kernel.log.

Any sugestions?

Thanks,

Jose
