Hi ! While browsing Linux manpages (man 3 syslog) I noticed that the manual says that the LOG_AUTH facility is deprecated use LOG_AUTHPRIV instead. Is there a good reason why OpenSSH doesn't have an option to use LOG_AUTHPRIV facility ? (Looks like that tcpd/telnet etc. use the AUTHPRIV facility (in RH6.2)). Shouldn't be too hard to add the AUTH_PRIV facility ? Cheers, -Jarno --

Hello, Some time ago I wrote PR conf/48170, which discussed the following problem: Syslog messages of facility LOG_AUTHPRIV and priority LOG_NOTICE (or higher) are sent by default to the world-readable log file /var/log/messages. That seems unacceptable since the facility LOG_AUTHPRIV is for hiding sensitive log messages inside a protected file, e.g., /var/log/auth.log. For example, login(1)

Hi, My apologies if this isn't the right place to ask this question. We have trying to setup auditing in Samba but can't seem to get it to work. The audit log file is empty and we see some entries about file/folders in the /var/log/samba/%m but not the actual audit bits. Can someone please assist or point in the correct direction? syslog = 0 log file = /var/log/samba/%m Log level = 0
