Basic Configuration
===================
rsyslog reads its main configuration from:
``/etc/rsyslog.conf``
Additional configuration snippets can be placed in:
``/etc/rsyslog.d/*.conf``
Minimal Example
---------------
The following configuration logs all messages to `/var/log/syslog`:
.. code-block:: rsyslog
# Load the input modules for system and kernel logging.
module(load="imuxsock") # Local system logs (e.g., from journald)
module(load="imklog") # Kernel log capture
# Traditionally, a *.* selector ("all logs") is added here.
# This is unnecessary, as it is the default behavior.
# Therefore, no filter is explicitly shown.
action(type="omfile" file="/var/log/syslog")
Apply changes by restarting rsyslog:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo systemctl restart rsyslog
