* MFC: r237921Christian Brueffer2012-07-151-0/+1
| | | | | | | | Similar to all.log, mention that /var/log/console.log has to be created and chmod'ed to make logging work. Notes: svn path=/stable/8/; revision=238474
* syslog.conf: pop up from logging only ppp messages at the end of fileAndriy Gapon2009-06-111-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows to append custom rules at the end of the file without risk of confusion that can result when one misses default !ppp line and doesn't add another program specification and thus subsequent selector(s) would belong to ppp program block.

* Do not print kernel debugging on console. In case of serial consoleGleb Smirnoff2005-02-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | this can cause a really heavy load on system. Several kernel debugging messages can be triggered even remotely (e.g. bad ARP replies). Use kern.warning instead, so that really significant messages still will be printed on console. Reviewed by: current@ MFC after: 1 week Security: this change fixes a DoS condition, when default system console is serial, and box is flooded with bogus ARP packets Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=142210

* Clean up logging of security information a bit:Robert Watson2002-03-111-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o Introduce /var/log/authentication.log, which will be the target for auth.info and authpriv.info by default. Rotate on the same schedule as most other logs. Create at installation. o Remove logging of auth.info from /var/log/security.log, which will return to being only for security feature subsystems (such as ipfw, and so on). This creates a special authentication log, which can now be searched by scripts for authentication events. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=92099

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | an all.log for logging all messages, and one to demonstrate use of loghosts. Also, a matching entry in newsyslog.conf for all.log. Per request of Garrett Wollman, also modified the maillog entry to use the @T newsyslog time specification mechanism. Because newsyslog doesn't support the mod date specification machanism, couldn't change other entries that required more than one execution a month, but less than once a day.

* This is Vixie cron 3.0. This version fixes all known security bugs.Guido van Rooij1994-01-221-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Further it implements crontab -e. I moved cron from /usr/libexec to /usr/sbin where most daemons are that are run from rc. That also gets rid of the ugly path crond used to have in ps(1) outputs. Further I renamed it to cron, as Paul Vixie likes it and is done by NetBSD. NOTE VERY WELL THE FOLLOWING: 1) Systems crontab changed. Every users crontab resides in /var/cron *EXCEPT* root's. This is a special crontab as it resides in /etc. Further it is the *ONLY* crontab file in which you specify usernames. See /usr/src/etc/crontab. This is also done by BSDI's BSD/386 as far as I know (they provided the patches for it anyway) 2) So you *must* delete root's crontab and reinstall the copy in /etc from /usr/src/etc. 'Must' is to much: the old installed crontab will work but cron will also try to 'run' /etc/crontab. 3) Last but not least: cron's logging is now done via syslog. Note that logging by cron is done lowercase when it logs about itsself and uppercase when it logs user events, like installing a new crontab. The default logfile file is the same as before: syslog.conf:cron.* /var/cron/log -Guido Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=1001
