/var/log/messages gets filled with the following:
Jan 7 22:01:01 papaya crond(pam_unix)[23831]: session opened for user root by (uid=0)
Jan 7 22:01:01 papaya crond(pam_unix)[23831]: session closed for user root
Jan 7 22:10:01 papaya crond(pam_unix)[23851]: session opened for user root by (uid=0)
Jan 7 22:10:01 papaya crond(pam_unix)[23851]: session closed for user root
Jan 7 22:20:01 papaya crond(pam_unix)[23874]: session opened for user root by (uid=0)
Jan 7 22:20:01 papaya crond(pam_unix)[23874]: session closed for user root
etc., etc.
This is the sysstat package running every ten minutes as the user 'root' and PAM dutifully announces that in /var/log/messages. How can I suppress these messages, pertaining ONLY to crond? I DO want PAM reporting when sessions get opened and closed, I just don't care to see a bajillion crond messages.
