syslog info

Yes, I'm reading the FreeBSD Questions mailing list again. It is amazing how much good info you can get from there, even if the traffic is heavy:

lists.freebsd.org Mailing Lists


This time, it lead me to a cool command:

FreeBSD Hypertext Man Pages: newsyslog

This command has a config file that lists all the log files that syslogd creates. You can control how often the log files are rotated. One neat thing is just seeing all the various log files listed. You can also find more syslog info in the man entry for syslog.conf.
