2# Configuration file for syslog-ng under Debian

4# attempts at reproducing default syslog behavior

6# the standard syslog levels are (in descending order of priority):
7# emerg alert crit err warning notice info debug
8# the aliases "error", "panic", and "warn" are deprecated
9# the "none" priority found in the original syslogd configuration is
10# only used in internal messages created by syslogd
