I think you can easily disable it from /etc/syslog.conf
by deleting these lines
!ppp
*.* /var/log/ppp.log
quoted from;
man ppp
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
o Create a log file. ppp uses syslog(3) to log information. A
common
log file name is /var/log/ppp.log. To make output go to this
file,
put the following lines in the /etc/syslog.conf file:
!ppp
*.*<TAB>/var/log/ppp.log
It is possible to have more than one PPP log file by creating a
link
to the ppp executable:
# cd /usr/sbin
# ln ppp ppp0
and using
!ppp0
*.*<TAB>/var/log/ppp0.log
in /etc/syslog.conf. Don't forget to send a HUP signal to
syslogd(8)
after altering /etc/syslog.conf.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGGING FACILITY
ppp is able to generate the following log info either via syslog(3)
or
directly to the screen:
Async Dump async level packet in hex.
CBCP Generate CBCP (CallBack Control Protocol) logs.
CCP Generate a CCP packet trace.
Chat Generate `dial', `login' and `hangup' chat script
trace
logs.
Command Log commands executed either from the command line or
any
of the configuration files.
Connect Log Chat lines containing the string "CONNECT".
Debug Log debug information.
HDLC Dump HDLC packet in hex.
ID0 Log all function calls specifically made as user id
0.
IPCP Generate an IPCP packet trace.
LCP Generate an LCP packet trace.
LQM Generate LQR reports.
Phase Phase transition log output.
TCP/IP Dump all TCP/IP packets.
Timer Log timer manipulation.
TUN Include the tun device on each log line.
Warning Output to the terminal device. If there is currently
no
terminal, output is sent to the log file using
syslogs
LOG_WARNING.
Error Output to both the terminal device and the log file
using
syslogs LOG_ERROR.
Alert Output to the log file using LOG_ALERT.
The ``set log'' command allows you to set the logging output
level. Mul-
tiple levels can be specified on a single command line. The
default is
equivalent to ``set log Phase''.
It is also possible to log directly to the screen. The syntax is
the
same except that the word ``local'' should immediately follow ``set
log''. The default is ``set log local'' (ie. only the un-maskable
warn-
ing, error and alert output).
If The first argument to ``set log [local]'' begins with a `+' or a
`-'
character, the current log levels are not cleared, for example:
PPP ON awfulhak> set log phase
PPP ON awfulhak> show log
Log: Phase Warning Error Alert
Local: Warning Error Alert
PPP ON awfulhak> set log +tcp/ip -warning
PPP ON awfulhak> set log local +command
PPP ON awfulhak> show log
Log: Phase TCP/IP Warning Error Alert
Local: Command Warning Error Alert
Log messages of level Warning, Error and Alert are not controllable
using
``set log [local]''.
The Warning level is special in that it will not be logged if it
can be
displayed locally.
