Hi There,
I am trying to set up a zabbix monitoring server, and one of the things I would like to monitor is the logs coming from my FreeNAS/TrueNAS boxes.
I am able to get this working except for the fact that I require the system logs to be set to enable read access to the 'wheel' group. However by default /var/log/messages is set for only the root user to have read or write perms.
Obviously any changes I make to the permissions of the messages logfile are lost after a reboot.
Is there any way to either move the logfile to a directory I can set permissions in persistently, or change the permissions on the logfiles themselves so they apply persistently?
Thanks
