System name: m11-113-16
Type and version: IP22 0.8E
Display type: UNKNOWN video
What were you trying to do?
look at system logs on this machine
What's wrong:
logging seems a bit verbose:
*.debug;kern.none /var/adm/SYSLOG
<8> m11-113-16:~> wc /var/adm/*SYSLOG
30 450 3222 /var/adm/SYSLOG
6807 76781 613860 /var/adm/oSYSLOG
6837 77231 617082 total
also, syslog rollovers are done via in root's crontab (this appears to
be the vendor behavior), rather than via newsyslog.conf (athenaism).
What should have happened:
logging should be less verbose. more log history should be kept.
