system log

What's it called and where does it live in HPUX? You know, in Solaris, everything about the system (such as errors, is written to the system log. Whats the HP equivalent?

Re: system log

Yes. It is /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log when there is nothing changed in /etc/syslog.conf.

Re: system log

Hi Darren,

The file is syslog. That is the current one. The one till the reboot is OLDsyslog. They are in /var/adm/syslog directory. For any further answers Solaris vs HP-UX follow this link:
