...appears to cause a failure for me:
syslogd: invalid option -- '-'
I think what you're trying to do here (but have possibly made a typo of
'=' instead of ':') is:
1) Set PARMS = $SYSKLOGD_PARMS, if that variable exists, regardless of
whether it is null.
2) Set PARMS to '-m 0' if $SYSKLOGD_PARMS is not set at all
Looking at bash(1) under 'Parameter Expansion' I can't see an operator
that does that. At the moment, I can't see a way of doing that
assignment without using an 'if...else' construct. Something like the
following:
if [ -n "${SYSKLOGD_PARMS+x}" ]; then
PARMS="-m 0";
else
PARMS="${SYSKLOGD_PARMS}"
fi

Matt.
