Re: Getting DHCP logs OUT of syslog

Hi,

I have configured my dhcp.conf to use the local7 facility for logging.
Works great - all the DHCP info goes into /var/log/bind.log, as
configued in /etc/syslog.conf.

HOWEVER! All the DHCP logging info is *still* going into /var/log/syslog
 as well - i.e. the DHCP info now goes into BOTH logs. How do I tell
DHCP to send the logs ONLY to local7?

I've tried restarting dhcpd and the syslog daemon, with no luck.


Try something like this in your /etc/syslog.conf:

*.*;auth,authpriv.none;!local7          -/var/log/syslog
local7.*                        -/var/log/dhcpd3.log
