Note that if you're using the systemd journal (and you are, in recent Fedora, including persistent logging to disk with F19), adding yourself to the 'systemd-journal' group will allow you to see system logs with 'journalctl'.
This doesn't seem to work. $ journalctl Unprivileged users cannot access messages, unless persistent log storage is enabled. Users in the 'systemd-journal' group may always access messages. $ groups jallad jallad : jallad mock systemd-journal $ whoami jallad Any thoughts?
Type "groups" without your username to show your _current_ groups -- remember that adding yourself to a group doesn't take effect until you start a new session. (E.g. by logging out and in again.)
That must be it. I did not relogin after adding myself to the group. I have lots of important sessions that I do not want to close now. However I tried this on my server, everything works after relogin.
Thanks!
