-                <para>Log data collected by the journal is primarily
-                text-based but can also include binary data where

-                to 2^64-1 bytes in size.</para>

-                lost at reboot. To make the data persistent, it
-                is sufficient to create
-                <filename>/var/log/journal/</filename> where
-                <filename>systemd-journald</filename> will then store

+
+    <para><filename>systemd-journald</filename> is a system service
+    that collects and stores logging data. It creates and maintains
+    structured, indexed journals based on logging information that is
+    received from a variety of sources:</para>

+
+    <para>The daemon will implicitly collect numerous metadata fields
+    for each log messages in a secure and unfakeable way. See
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.journal-fields</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+    for more information about the collected metadata.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>Log data collected by the journal is primarily text-based
+    but can also include binary data where necessary. All objects
+    stored in the journal can be up to 2^64-1 bytes in size.</para>
+
+    <para>By default, the journal stores log data in
+    <filename>/run/log/journal/</filename>. Since
+    <filename>/run/</filename> is volatile, log data is lost at
+    reboot. To make the data persistent, it is sufficient to create
+    <filename>/var/log/journal/</filename> where
+    <filename>systemd-journald</filename> will then store the
+    data.</para>
+
+    <para><filename>systemd-journald</filename> will forward all
+    received log messages to the
+    <constant>AF_UNIX</constant>/<constant>SOCK_DGRAM</constant>
+    socket <filename>/run/systemd/journal/syslog</filename>, if it
+    exists, which may be used by Unix syslog daemons to process the
+    data further.</para>

+    <title>Access Control</title>
+
+    <para>Journal files are, by default, owned and readable by the
+    <literal>systemd-journal</literal> system group but are not
+    writable. Adding a user to this group thus enables her/him to read
+    the journal files.</para>
+
+    <para>By default, each logged in user will get her/his own set of
+    journal files in <filename>/var/log/journal/</filename>. These
+    files will not be owned by the user, however, in order to avoid
+    that the user can write to them directly. Instead, file system
+    ACLs are used to ensure the user gets read access only.</para>
+
+    <para>Additional users and groups may be granted access to journal
+    files via file system access control lists (ACL). Distributions
+    and administrators may choose to grant read access to all members
+    of the <literal>wheel</literal> and <literal>adm</literal> system
+    groups with a command such as the following:</para>
+
+    <programlisting># setfacl -Rnm g:wheel:rx,d:g:wheel:rx,g:adm:rx,d:g:adm:rx /var/log/journal/</programlisting>
+
+    <para>Note that this command will update the ACLs both for
+    existing journal files and for future journal files created in the
+    <filename>/var/log/journal/</filename> directory.</para>
