I want to change the location where the crontab log files are located. I tried to look for the config file but only found these:

/etc/log.d/conf/services/cron.conf:

###########################################################################
# $Id: cron.conf,v 1.4 2002/10/12 02:08:09 kirk Exp $
###########################################################################

# You can put comments anywhere you want to. They are effective for the
# rest of the line.

# this is in the format of <name> = <value>. Whitespace at the beginning
# and end of the lines is removed. Whitespace before and after the = sign
# is removed. Everything is case *insensitive*.

# Yes = True = On = 1
# No = False = Off = 0

Title = "Cron"

# Which logfile group...
LogFile = cron

and


/etc/log.d/conf/logfiles/cron.conf:
##########################################################################

# What actual file? Defaults to LogPath if not absolute path....
LogFile = cron

# If the archives are searched, here is one or more line
# (optionally containing wildcards) that tell where they are...
# Note: if these are gzipped, you need to end with a .gz even if
# you use wildcards...
Archive = cron.*
Archive = cron.*.gz

*OnlyHost
*RemoveService = anacron
####



Neither of them have the path to the current log files. Does anybody know where the defaults are?

I'm using Fedora Core 1

Thanks

cron manual: cron logs its action to the syslog facility 'cron', and logging may be controlled using the standard syslogd(8) facility.

In the /etc/syslog.conf there is a line that says:
cron.* /var/log/cron.log
Hope this helps.

Hmm, sounds like the file i need.

Thanks a lot.
