Layton, Sr." X-pmrqc: 1 Priority: normal X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v2.42) Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I have a new router that logs messages to a unix system that uses syslogd. FreeBSD obviously has this. I read the man page on syslogd and apparently don't fully understand. My assumption is that the router sends the message to the syslog daemon and it writes to a log file. Is this correct and what file do I review to see what the log messages were ? Thanks Tim- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Timothy P.
