Hi Larry
The permission is -rw------- 1 root root same with the another log in /var/log
And there is alot of output in dmesg. And I already restart the daemon too.
I also try:
# logger -p daemon.warn
"This is only a test."
And in the /var/log/messages
# tail -f messages
Dec 13 04:02:39 server2 syslogd 1.4.1: restart.
Dec 14 08:37:39 server2 kernel: Kernel logging (proc) stopped.
Dec 14 08:37:39 server2 kernel: Kernel log daemon terminating.
Dec 14 08:37:40 server2 exiting on signal 15
Dec 14 08:37:40 server2 syslogd 1.4.1: restart.
Dec 14 08:37:40 server2 kernel: klogd 1.4.1, log source = /proc/kmsg started.
Dec 14 08:39:18 server2 root: "This is only a test."
Dec 14 08:39:19 server2 root:
But only that what I get from /var/log/messages, nothing else.
Best regards.
