Notice lines (1) and (3). I want to log news.notice ONLY in /var/log/news/news.notice but instead of that I have the same output both in /var/log/news/news.notice and /var/log/messages. If I remove *.notice from line (3) I am afraid that I would not log any other *.notice messages. (1) news.notice /var/log/news/news.notice *.err;kern.debug;auth.notice;mail.crit /dev/console (3) *.notice;kern.debug;lpr.info;mail.crit /var/log/messages What should I modify, before I kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog.pid`. Thanks...
