Here is sample output of my syslog messages in /var/log/syslog :

Nov 15 20:20:48 ubuntu winbindd[915]: [2011/11/15 20:20:48.940063,  0] winbindd/idmap_tdb.c:287(idmap_tdb_open_db)

Nov 15 20:20:48 ubuntu winbindd[915]:   Upgrade of IDMAP_VERSION from -1 to 2 is not possible with incomplete configuration

How do I see what was the level of message? like info, warn, error etc?

I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS with rsyslog package version 5.8.1-1ubuntu2
