My sshd_config contains:

# Logging
SyslogFacility AUTH
LogLevel INFO

And syslog.conf contains:

auth.info                                       /var/log/messages

I did a 'killall -HUP syslogd' but syslog is not logging any auth [sshd] 
messages _anywhere_. Any ideas?


p.s. I am using 'sshd version OpenSSH_2.9 FreeBSD localisations 20010713' and 
the man page doesn't contain a LogLevel of 'notice'.

     LogLevel
             Gives the verbosity level that is used when logging messages from
             sshd.  The possible values are: QUIET, FATAL, ERROR, INFO, VER-
             BOSE and DEBUG.  The default is INFO.  Logging with level DEBUG
             violates the privacy of users and is not recommended.
