Comment 9 for bug 776361

Thanks Keith,

Instead of using the printf statement (got trouble copying carriage return chars from your example I simply created a file with the lines

*.=info;*.=notice;*.=warn;\
        auth,authpriv.none;\
        cron,daemon.none;\
        mail,news.none -/var/log/messages

using

sudo gedit /etc/rsyslog.d/99-fixlog.conf

Thanks for all your help.

Kind Regards

Mike
