We have server systems running Gnome Display Manager which remote
users use to start an X session with XDMCP. This puts messages in
/var/log/secure at every connect/disconnect, related to polkit. We
don't need the users authenticated for console activities like
mounting a CD drive. Want to not have these messages being logged.
How can they be stopped? CentOS 6.5 is OS; Gnome version is 2.28.
Thanks.
