elogind new session flood

unInstance · 03-16-2024, 01:48 AM

I have a headless x86_64 router running Slackware 15.0 -release that I connect to over SSH.

Code:

Mar 16 07:46:10 muhrouter elogind-daemon[1343]: New session 44 of user uninstance.
Mar 16 07:46:10 muhrouter sshd[2427]: Received disconnect from 192.168.2.20 port 56350:11: disconnected by user
Mar 16 07:46:10 muhrouter sshd[2427]: Disconnected from user uninstance 192.168.2.20 port 56350
Mar 16 07:46:10 muhrouter elogind-daemon[1343]: Removed session 44.
Mar 16 07:46:20 muhrouter sshd[2429]: Accepted publickey for uninstance from 192.168.2.20 port 48174 ssh2: ED25519 SHA256:Wf+Y7NyU3BkAX6YHX/teiS1q/4HifR9KaWPk/0Pwtts

Why does elogind flood these messages in /var/log/messages every 10 seconds?

because the user uninstance from address 192.168.2.20 is connected and disconnected to your system.

I keep getting those every ten seconds even when I remain connected, NOT constantly re-connecting. Even if I am connected via mosh, I keep getting those messages.
