Hi!

I am getting getting "/var/log/messages" on my console. It doesn't save it in /var/log.
I have checked entries in /etc/syslog.conf file. Its correct. Can someone help me.

Regards,
Mike

Or the directory/file in /var/log/ hasn't the correct permission to allow program 'X' to write into it . But it is more likely that Igmar is correct . Twyl , JimL
