MailScanner and syslog

[Osvaldo T. Suarez]

Hi:
Did you try adding the "-r" option in /etc/sysconfig/syslog?
it would look like this (on a redhat 7.1 server)
SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-m 0 -r"
regards

Have recently installed MailScanner 3.12-5 on a new system and notice
that I no longer see "mailscanner" messages (eg. Scanning 2 messages,
...) in the sendmail logs. This installation is a Linux (RedHat 7.2)
system.

The current systems are Solaris 7 running with MailScanner 3.10-3 and
"mailscanner" messages do appear in the sendmail logs.

Is this a change in MailScanner since 3.10-3? I cannot see why the
syslog.conf file on Linux may be losing the "mailscanner" messages as
sendmail records are being logged as I require.
