[cobalt-security] syslog.conf Settings

["James Hoaggs" <james_hoaggs@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Where do people log their "*.emerg" messages in syslog.conf
 if there is not a second computer to log them, since the default
 is "*" or none?  Is is good place make a file like this?:
 *.emerg                 /var/log/emergency
  and have them logged there? Also, where are all daemons other than
mail, uucp, and kernel log facilities being logged?; can we just add
them to the messages and seperate daemon file as this? :
 *.info; mail,ftp,daemon,authpriv.none           /var/log/messages
 daemon.info                                     /var/log/daemon

 Lastly, has anyone changed all the log files permissions'
 to root and belonging to the wheel group as follows? :

 chown root.wheel /var/log/*
 chmod 600 /var/log/*

 TIA,
