They should be found in /var/log. If some service's logs are being lost, it's worth filing a bug about that service.

I'm meaning logs like auth.log or syslog. Some logs are in /var/log, but many of the major ones, like lastlog, syslog, and auth.log arr missing.

By default everything (with few exceptions) goes to /var/log/messages. With additional syslog configuration you could split individual facilities out to separate log files, but this isn’t done by default. -- Ricardo GPG: BCA6 89B6 3655 3801 C3C6 2150 197A 5888 235F ACAC https://elephly.net ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
