How to keep kern.log out of syslog
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty margin-bottom:0;
I'm working on Ubuntu 16.04.3 and I found that I could get the log of kernel from two places: /var/log/kern.log and /var/log/syslog. /var/log/syslog contains other logs but I could find /var/log/kern.log in it.
So it is possible to keep the kern.log out of the syslog? I mean I want to remove the kern.log from the syslog?
I've tried to remove the module(load="imklog") from the /etc/rsyslog.conf but this will remove all of kernel log from the kern.log and the syslog, whereas what I need is not to touch the kern.log, only to remove the kernel log from the syslog.

On Ubuntu 16.04, your rsyslog rules would be found in the /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf file. Inside that file, you'll see the two following lines:
*.*;auth,authpriv.none -/var/log/syslog
kern.* -/var/log/kern.log
You could skip the kernel messages from being logged to /var/log/syslog like so:
*.*;auth,authpriv,kern.none -/var/log/syslog
kern.* -/var/log/kern.log
