why can't I implement syslog ?
Hi all, I would like to log my message by using syslog so I altered /etc/syslog.conf like below (kill and re-start syslogd as well) # file: /etc/syslog.conf -- snip --- local1.debug/var/log/myScript.log and in a shell script I use # /usr/bin/logger -i -p local1.debug -t myScript this is a testing log message. after I run above script nothing to file:/var/log/myScript.log. Why not or I miss something ? TIA, Pote = - Pote :-) [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Yahoo! Messenger - Communicate instantly...Ping your friends today!

This would limit the scope of logging. See man syslog.conf! The file myscript.log must exist before you restart syslogd to re-read the configuration. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
