I am a newbie and donīt unterstand the syslog_facility option:
I have a SUSE 7.3 Linux
I found a file /etc/syslog.conf
I read the man syslog and man syslog.conf
I know there is the facitlity:
auth, auth-priv,cron,daemon,kern,lpr,mail,mark,news,security,syslog,user
uusp, local0 through local7
I know there is the priority:
debug,info,notice,warning,warn,error,crit,alert,panic
I know there is the mon.conf:
syslog_facility = daemon (default)
Or there is the parameter -0 facility
/usr/local/mon/mon -O facility
I look at the perl code and find Hardcoded following commands:
syslog('info', "client command \"$l\"") ....
info = priority ?!
My cgi-script with the mon-client command makes many queries (html
refresh=5);
On the remote server, there are many mon entries in the /var/log/messages
...
e.g.
Jan 15 13:29:35 pc426 mon[20686]: client connection from 172.20.12.216:34029
