Konu: Re: howto separate isakmpd syslogs into another file

Hello,

I'm trying to separate isakmpd/ipsec logs to another file instead of 
/var/log/messages.
Here my config at the top of /etc/syslog.conf
!!isakmpd
daemon.info                                             /var/log/ipsec_info.log
daemon.debug                                            /var/log/ipsec_debug.log
!*

I restarted syslogd & isakmpd but nothing changed. It still logs to 
/var/log/messages.
How can i achieve this?

Thanks in advance.

The files /var/log/ipsec_{info,debug}.log need to exist before logging
to them (and loaded in by sending SIGHUP to syslog(8)). syslogd(8) will
not try to create the files. From syslogd(8):

The logfiles already have to exist with the correct permissions.


The default syslog.conf doesn't write messages for DAEMON to
/var/log/messages, they should end up in /var/log/daemon. But without
seeing your full syslog.conf I can't say what's going on there.

Hope this helps.
