      Hi,

      since upgrade from 2.6.0 to 2.7.0 there is something wrong with syslog. I increased the file size of some logs leaving other at the default value but syslog is not obeying the settings it still rotate them all at the default file size value.

      EDIT: Is there somebody who can confirm/replicate that?

      Have a nice day,
      fireodo

        @fireodo do you use it to dump the logs to a remote machine?

            @fireodo I attempted to send them to a remote virtual machine running security onion once. But security onion needs a lot of resources.
