Hi Terri,

Ah, but the day is still young ;-)

Hmm... Which Debian release(s) are you referring to?

I have experience in running the LDM under Ubuntu 14.04 which is a relatively
current Debian offshoot, and I have not run into anything like you are referring
to (but I have run into other things that I don't like).

re:

Nope, I have not see this.  I can't imagine why adding an action for
LDM logging to rsyslog.conf would cause other things to stop logging
UNLESS those other things are also using the local0 log facility.

By the way, the next release of the LDM will allow the user to get
away from using the system logging daemon for LDM logging.  This will
be a big win for folks that want to use an 'enforcing' SELINUX setup.

Cheers,

Tom
