Peace,
I have messages like (on a centos 3.8 box)
NET: 21 messages suppressed.
martian source 10.255.255.255 from 10.0.0.138, on dev eth0
on my screen. In the same time it is being logged to a file.
Are there any way to stop the logging of these messages on the console
and still logged to a file (/var/log/messages)
Thank you.

Edit and add the following to sysctl.conf; # Stop logging to console kernel.printk = 3 4 1 7 then run 'sysctl -p' so that it will take effect. To get it working at boot time i added the following to syscrl.conf; sysctl -p I now see no logging to the console anymore.> > Thank you. > > Hameed > > > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS at centos.org > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-- Regards Robert Smile... it increases your face value!
