I appreciate the meaning of 'all', but this never used to happen before,
eg:
Aug 11 15:31:56 <kern.info> backup /kernel: Connection attempt to UDP 127.0.0.1:512 from 127.0.0.1:1378
Aug 11 15:31:57 <console.info> backup /kernel: Aug 11 15:31:56 <kern.info> backup /kernel: Connection attempt to UDP 127.0.0.1:512 from 127.0.0.1:1378
The exact same message is logged twice. This only started happening since
console logging was added (I am comming from a -stable point of view). And
now, with a recent change to /etc/security, these double messages are
being reported in the daily periodic run.
I can live with a local change.
