Supress log output?

[Bamsefar]

So I have this small job running every minut, and it is fired by cru. However each run is logged in the system log:

Jan 4 21:22:01 crond[763]: crond: USER admin pid 14333 cmd /jffs/scripts/CheckIfHome

Is there any way to supress this - I have no use for this, and it generates 1440 lines per day, for no use...?

It's something that I'd wondered myself. But as you asked I thought I'd look at it a bit more.

A solution would be to change the log level of crond to something higher than 8 as follows:

# killall crond
# crond -l 9

I have a dual wan setup, with a 3g dongle set in fail over. The issue is that while the ADSL is working, the 3G connection is in standby and gets disconnected by the 3G operator (H3G) every 360 minutes. This floods the router's log with the following code every 360 minutes:

Jan  5 09:58:08 pppd[587]: LCP terminated by peer
Jan  5 09:58:08 pppd[587]: Connect time 360.0 minutes.
Jan  5 09:58:08 pppd[587]: Sent 106590 bytes, received 0 bytes.
Jan  5 09:58:08 pppd[587]: Modem hangup
Jan  5 09:58:08 pppd[587]: Connection terminated.

Is there a way I can disable this logging?
Thanks for any idea.
