journalctl gives pretty much exactly the same output as /var/log/messages and so on. As a side-benefit, instead of using grep, it indexes various things so you can more quickly filter. For most use caes though, the switch is rather easy: journalctl | grep something vs grep something /var/log/messages and journalctl -f vs tail -f /var/log/messages So if you don't want to know anything, you don't need to know much. Further, you can keep another syslog running. In any case, journal is quite efficient. -- Regards, Olav -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
