The title should be clear. However, some logging done by syslogd
can be controlled using asl.conf
.
Where can I find a list of files that control all the other log files that come as standard? (not asking for 3rd party, but appreciated as well)
Using OS 10.10.4 Yosemite (but hardly any difference between named versions) e.g.
/private/var/log/accountpolicy.log
/private/var/log/authd.log
/private/var/log/commerce.log
/private/var/log/coreduetd.log
/private/var/log/displaypolicyd.log
/private/var/log/fsck_hfs.log
/private/var/log/install.log
/private/var/log/opendirectoryd.log
/private/var/log/secinitd.log
/private/var/log/wifi.log
and what is with the ones found in ~/user/Anon/Library/Logs
such as:
talagent.log
DiskUtility.log
and of course the folder specific ones like mail, iTunes and so forth.
I would like to control them all but first I need to know who writes them on which criteria and where can I manipulate them, preferably one by one since just killing demons seems not the way to go.
