Because neutron is running as an unprivileged user, it needs to use "sudo" to gain elevated privileges. The `sudo` command is, by default, quite verbose, which makes sense in an environment where 'sudo' commands happen rarely as the result of manual administrator actions. In an environment where it is part of frequent automated tasks it can be an annoyance. You can disable these messages for a *particular* user using syntax like this: Defaults:neutron !syslog This will disable syslogging of sudo activity for user "neutron" while still leaving it enabled for everyone else. -- Lars Kellogg-Stedman <lars(a)redhat.com&gt; | larsks @ {freenode,twitter,github} Cloud Engineering / OpenStack | http://blog.oddbit.com/
