log-events This element sets the severity and facility of different
logging events. The events have reasonable default values,
which are used if no explicit logging settings are made. This
setting allows customizing the default values.
For the events, facility
and
severity
can be set as attributes. The events
itself should be listed inside the log-events
element.
The facility can be normal
, daemon
,
user
, auth
, local0
,
local1
, local2
, local3
,
local4
, local5
, local6
,
local7
, or discard
. Setting the
facility to discard
causes the server to ignore
the specifed log events.
The severity can be informational
,
notice
, warning
, error
,
critical
, security-success
, or
security-failure
.
Any events that are not specifically defined in the
configuration file will use the default values. The defaults
can be overridden for all remaining events by giving an empty
log-events
element after all other definitions
and setting a severity value for it.
