Hi,
I played with my virtual consoles and found a system log on tty12. [1]
Having the log there is very convenient. Plus, the AUTHPRIV facility is
turned off, and all bets are off anyway when someone gains physical
access---but is the syslog on tty12 still appropriate now that folks use
GNU Guix also on production equipment?
What is the plan for when Shepherd takes over the syslog? Thanks!
Kind regards
Felix

I think so. You explained very clearly why it’s okay, as I see it, at
least by default.
It can be configured anyway, and likewise with Shepherd’s ‘system-log’
service.
WDYT?
