Rep:
logging of imap connections
Hi
I am running a RH9 server with imap accounts and squid.
My secure log is full of access from local PC's using Outlook Express (in the 10.x.x.x range) which makes the log pretty meaningless and very large. I egrep now if I need to look for anything specific.
How can I restrict the logging of imap connections from the local network range ? I still want to see imap connections from the outside world.
The alternative would be to get these connections logged to a different file - ie not in my secure log.
If this is a no-brainer, I'm sorry, but I can't seem to find what is generating the log. It doesn't appear in syslog.conf and I can't find an imapd.conf.
