The logger(1) present in the binary package bsdutils in version 1:2.19.1-5 certainly lacks INET support, likewise the manual page logger(1) clearly relates to UNIX sockets only. The output of $ strings -a /usr/bin/logger | egrep 'socket|udp|port|server is on architecture linux-i386 only finding "socket" as appearing in $ logger -u socket Tell me where and two related messages. None of the switches you mention. Does this mean that LaMont Jones is shipping a crippled logger(1)? Regards, Mats -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
