Getting Rid of Unnecessary Logging
I compiled my own kernel, and my kern.log and syslog files are filling up with networking logging messages such as the following:
I guess my first question is, are these necessary? And my second question is, if not, how do I get rid of them? I'm thinking it is some kernel option, but I can't seem to find it.Code:Oct 8 14:32:48 server kernel: [619790.164937] ''IN-world':'IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:00:24:1d:8f:e1:97:08:00 SRC=192.168.0.102 DST=255.255.255.255 LEN=116 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=52511 PROTO=UDP SPT=1035 DPT=19540 LEN=96

Did you compile a debuggable version of the kernel?
Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
Just remember, Semper Gumbi - always be flexible!

Not that I know of. However, I found a way to turn the logging off. I'll look it up in case anyone else is looking for the same answer.
I added the following "kern.!warning" to the rsyslog.conf file, so that the following lines looked like this:
That got rid of the warnings that were filling up my logs.Code:*.*;auth,authpriv.none,kern.!warning -/var/log/syslog kern.*;kern.!warning -/var/log/kern.log
