Subject: Useless syslogd
Date: Fri, 11 Feb 2011 13:47:29 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D55A061.8040901@mlbassoc.com> (raw)
... at least out of the box.
It seems that syslog is configured to store its messages in
a buffer (memory only?) by default:
$ cat meta/recipes-core/busybox/files/syslog.conf
DESTINATION="buffer" # log destinations (buffer file remote)
...
This doesn't seem very useful to me. I know I can override this
in my platform recipes, but I was just wondering what's the
rationale? Would it not make more sense to chose DESTINATION="file"?
Otherwise, where do the messages go? How can I see them?
