I'm using CentOS 5.3. After booting up, where can I find the log file that contains if all services where successfully loaded or not?
For example when computer boots you get a list of start services and they can be OK or FAILED.
Is there a log file where this information is kept? I had a look in the following directory /var/log/ but not sure which one will contain the informaiton that I need.
Many thanks for any advice,
Answer
Two places to look:
Run dmesg
. From its man page "dmesg is used to examine or control the kernel ring buffer. The program helps users to print out their bootup messages."
Look in /var/log/messages
