Hi, > I'm curious - why? The reason is quite simple: I am a kernel developer and sometimes ssh into my machine in several ssh sessions, many times during work sessions I monitor the kernel log by tail -f /var/log/messages, and any clutter of text simply distracts me and is not needed as I am working in an isolated LAN in a LAB, there is no outside access and no risk of penetration. I am sure there is a way to avoid this messages. Any ideas anyone? regards, Kevin On Mon, Sep 1, 2014 at 8:18 PM, Pete Travis <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > On 08/30/2014 08:58 AM, Kevin Wilson wrote: >> Hi, >> Thanks.
