Simple syslog-ng file configuration confusion

[capricorn80]

Thanks a lot for your help. Let me test few things and I will come back with my question later.

Hi again!

So by using

destination local_log {
          file ("/var/log/syslog-ng/$YEAR.$MONTH.$DAY/$HOST/$FACILITY.log");

We are getting rid of all the lines below:

destination d_auth  { file("/var/log/secure"); };
destination d_boot  { file("/var/log/boot.log"); };
destination d_cron  { file("/var/log/cron"); };
destination d_kern  { file("/var/log/dmesg"); };
destination d_mesg  { file("/var/log/messages"); };

Is that right ?

Regards,
