Yeah, I think it's been that way all along. > It might be reasonable to reduce "logger shutting down" to DEBUG1 > or so, now that the facility has been around for awhile. +1. For example, many windows system have *only* that message in the eventlog, and nothing else... Which is kind of strange. It could be interesting to have it write it *to the logfile* though, since it'd then at least be in the same place as the others. As in special-casing this one message, and just ignore logging it in case it fails. But think we're fine just dropping the level. //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
