Hello,
I have a device logging to my server but it logs in /var/log/messages as
well as /var/log/pix.log.
here is my syslog.conf
# Log all kernel messages to the console.
# Logging much else clutters up the screen.
#kern.*                                                 /dev/console
 
# Log anything (except mail) of level info or higher.
# Don't log private authentication messages!
*.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none               
/var/log/messages
 
# The authpriv file has restricted access.
authpriv.*                                              /var/log/secure
 
# Log all the mail messages in one place.
mail.*                                                  /var/log/maillog
 
 
# Log cron stuff
cron.*                                                  /var/log/cron
 
# Everybody gets emergency messages
*.emerg                                                 *
 
# Save news errors of level crit and higher in a special file.
uucp,news.crit                                          /var/log/spooler
 
# Save boot messages also to boot.log
local7.*                                               
/var/log/boot.log
# Save messages to pix.log
local6.*                                                /var/log/pix.log

What should I change so that it will only log to /var/log/pix.log.

thanks
