Hello,
Why my Debian box has not any kern.log file under the /var/log/ directory?

Thank you.

in new debian releases all the logs are handled by journalctl, the old syslogd is not running at all. You might wan to read the changelog.
for example: https://www.debian.org/releases/stab...system-logging
