What does Linux use to produce and maintain log files? Where do you configure it?
syslogd - otherwise known as the syslog daemon.
The syslogd daemon handles messages from servers and other user-mode programs. It’s usually paired with a daemon called klogd, which is generally installed from the same sysklogd package as syslogd. The klogd daemon manages logging of kernel messages.
For configuration, this is done through the /etc/syslog.conf file. (The rsyslogd configuration file is /etc/rsyslog.conf and is similar to syslog.conf.)
