Hello,

I have a question with syslog.conf. I don't find informations about this 
on man.
What the utility of :

!startslip
*.*                  /var/log/slip.log
!ppp
 *.*                  /var/log/ppp.log

I don't understand how it works, because I think we must use a \ to 
return on a new line ! For example, startslip includes ALL (.*.) except 
!startslip ? I don't think... Because I read that.

Could you explain me ?

Thanks :-)
