enable syslogd ppp log
I'm having some problem connecting to the Internet and need to see /var/log/ppp for debugging purposes. But unfortunately there's no such file there.
I have tried to enable (uncomment) it from syslogd (/etc/syslog.conf) but no such entry is there as well. Does anyone know how to enable this file to log ppp? TIA. |
In /etc/ppp/ppp.conf you need the line:
Code:
set log All # or whatever you want to log Code:
!ppp |
works like magic. thanks heaps.

lol, I was tempted to point you towards the manpage for this because that is the way to learn best. But I remembered that this wasn't exactly easy or intuitive when I tried to do it. Debug your ppp connection first and then go read the man pages for syslogd and syslog.conf -- trust me there is a lot to learn from them and you can specialize your logs to suit your needs.
