🎀 FILES 🎀

• /var/log/messages — The system's main logfile.
• /etc/syslog.conf — Configuration file for syslogd. See syslog.conf(5) for exact information.

lowkey important: /etc/syslog.conf is the config for syslogd, and if you want the exact info, you gotta check syslog.conf(5). don't skip that part. 🙈
