[tac_plus] Re: How to stop tacplus logging to /var/log/syslog?

[Andy Saykao]

Thanks for the man page John.

I have a slight dilemma now. I did what you suggested and got tacplus
to log to news (logging=news), but after having re-read your email and
finding that no matter what I do, it will always continue to log to
syslog, I removed the lines from tac_plus.conf and syslog.conf and
reverted things back to the way it was originally.  Now I am not
getting any auth logs being sent to the tac_plus.log file??? I've
restarted both the tac_plus and sysklogd daemon.

All I see is in the tac_plus.log file is the daemon starting up...

/tac_plus/bin/tac_plus -C /tac_plus/etc/tac_plus.conf -d 16

Any ideas why this is happening now and how to fix it?

Thanks.

Andy
