That's correct, but in my case nobody directly decreases the priority.

Icinga does it inside it's daemon. And patching it just because this FreeBSD change doesn't look good.

Log messages are from syslog, from /var/log/messages. Every minute syslog outputs such messages.

I found a workaround. I changed default class in /etc/login.conf from

priority=0

to

priority=inherit

So it looks like every jail must have `priority=inherit` in /etc/login.conf instead of default `priority=0`.

Thanks for the help.
