I'm trying to log system security messages in the /root/secure.log. I
know theres a way to do it by adding a line to the syslog.conf file
but can't figure it out. I've tried adding /root/secure.log
security.info but that doesn't work. The only thing maybe my system
isn't generating any security messages to log.

Thanks for any help,
Pete

I give up. What do you think a "security message" is and
what exactly is it supposed to generate in such a way that
service system-log will know anything about it...?
Even better - whats wrong with the defaults?
