Hi,

I've a freeBSD6.0-i386 with IPFv4.1.8 and these
lines in /etc/syslog.conf

*.notice;authpriv.none;kern.debug;lpr.info;mail.crit;news.err
  /var/log/message
security.*                           
/var/log/security
...

Why syslogd is writing into /var/log/messages
instead of /var/log/security.

What parameter do I must set so syslogd doesn't
write in /var/log/message any more? 

I want that it write to /var/log/message or to
/var/log/ipmon.log (adding !ipmon *.*
/var/log/ipmon.log at the end of
/etc/syslog.conf)

Thanks...






Efren Bravo.
