I know that the logging command line have changed but the way I want corresponds to the current (5.4.1~dfsg-9) snmpcmd man page: <<<<<<<<<= LOGGING OPTIONS The mechanism and destination to use for logging of warning and error messages can be controlled by passing various parameters to the -L flag. -Le Log messages to the standard error stream. -Lf FILE Log messages to the specified file. -Lo Log messages to the standard output stream. -Ls FACILITY Log messages via syslog, using the specified facility ('d' for LOG_DAEMON, 'u' for LOG_USER, or '0'-'7' for LOG_LOCAL0 through LOG_LOCAL7). There are also "upper case" versions of each of these options, which allow the corresponding logging mechanism to be restricted to certain priorities of message. Using standard error logging as an example: -LE pri will log messages of priority 'pri' and above to standard error. -LE p1-p2 will log messages with priority between 'p1' and 'p2' (inclu- sive) to standard error. For -LF and -LS the priority specification comes before the file or facility token. The priorities recognised are: 0 or ! for LOG_EMERG, 1 or a for LOG_ALERT, 2 or c for LOG_CRIT, 3 or e for LOG_ERR, 4 or w for LOG_WARNING, 5 or n for LOG_NOTICE, 6 or i for LOG_INFO, and 7 or d for LOG_DEBUG. Normal output is (or will be!) logged at a priority level of LOG_NOTICE =>>>>>>>>>> As I understand, "snmpd -LS 0-4 d" is wellformed and mean: log via syslog under facility LOG_DAEMON restricted to priorities LOG_EMERG to LOG_WARNING. > Kind regards > > T. > > P.S.: When reopening, please CC the bug so everyone sees your explanation. > -- > Thomas Viehmann, http://thomas.viehmann.net/ > Mathieu Parent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
