Hello, guys. I would like to forward the output of the emergency level log messages to the console of all users logged in. For that purpose, there exist the line
in the standard rsyslog.conf file. However, no emergency messages are sent to my console I asked some guys in the rsyslog-forum and the answer was that it has to have something to do with the priveleges dropping of rsyslog. There is a preveleges dropping of rsyslog indeed. In rsyslog.conf file I found the lines
Code:
$PrivDropToUser syslog
$PrivDropToGroup syslog
My question is now the following: Is that the reason for not sending the log messages to the console? Does the user "syslog" not possess apropriate rights for that purpose?
