  • Linux: Disable Logging to Console

    As soon as you install linux and start firewalling, I bet you get tired of all the console messages!  I sure do.  Stop it by changing one small configuration.

    1. Use your favorite text editor and edit this file: /etc/sysconfig/syslog.
    2. Change the “KLOGD_OPTIONS” to “-2 -c 1”
    3. Save and exit.
    4. Now, restart syslog (service syslog restart).

    Voila!  Nice clean interface without all the kernel messages!
