configuring sudo log.

[blasvinas]

Hi,

I am trying to create the sudo log file. How can I configure logging for sudo utility?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Bye.

In your /etc/syslog.conf file, add:

local2.<whatever level of logging you want> /path/to/your/sudo/log

I have local2.debug /var/adm/sudo.log in my syslog.conf.

I think you have to refresh the syslogd for it to start logging sudo.

Hi bi,

Thanks for your answer. Dou you know what local2 mean? Can be local1 or local3? Bye.

No, I don't know why it's local2. That is just what the doc that came with sudo said to use.
