Silence syslog (noflushd & dhclient)
Hello,
this is my first post here. I use Debian unstable on my fanless VIA
EPIA home workstation. Noise is a big deal for me, so I use noflushd to
spin down the HD. However log-messages spin it up, especially dhclient.
I have tried adding "-" chars in /etc/syslog.conf but it keeps spinning
up.
What is a good/proper method to silence at least dhclient messages?
Killing syslogd seems to drastic.
Regards, David.
