does the following catch every thing or is there a default logging level for syslog-ng that my be weeding out stuff. My logs seem unusually quiet.
| Code: | options {
long_hostnames(off);
sync(0);
stats(43200);
};
source src { unix-stream("/dev/log"); internal(); pipe("/proc/kmsg"); };
destination messages { file("/var/log/messages"); };
log { source(src); destination(messages); };

It looks good. Everything to /var/log/messages.

not sure anything is missing... first time I have used syslog-ng and I'm a little parranoid about using a new logger on a new box. Just wanted to make sure that there was no default logging level of like warn or something. Just paranoid I guess...
BTW...
been reading up on the $YEAR, $DAY, $MONTH varables in syslog-ng for doing archiving. Anyone know a way to archive by week? I don't generate enough logs to warrent daily rotation and monthly is too long... monthly the thought just gives me the creeps!
I use to use logrotate but that d@mn thing wreaks havoc on vixie-cron!
thx,
