Is there a way to stop the system from logging to the console? Most of these messages are just regular notices (like upsd's regular stat reports) or minor warnings (like problems with sendmail and the DHCP assigned IPs) Regardless, I'm admining this on a part-time basis, so the messages scrolling across the console aren't much help (I'm always checking the various log files) And they sure get in the way when they pop up while you're trying to edit a file or something. Is there a way to change the threshold on this so only critical messages pop up. That way I could tell the people there that any time they see messages popping up on the screen they should call me. Either way, it would be nice to simply not have work around all those messages.
