My keyboard seems too slippery today. Please read the whole of my message
as: syslog expresses local time through ctime_r() which means tzset() will
be done via /etc/localtime. So, it's sufficient to set /etc/localtime in
the chrooted environment.
(The second paragraph is completely redundant; it's only needed to bring
the syslog messages out of chrooted environment. Sorry.)

The tzset() alone doesn't fill the gap.
You need fill /chrootedplace/etc/localtime with valid local time information.
For syslogd to catch logs, the socket must be captured by it:
/chrootedplace/{dev/log,var/run/log}, depending on your preference.

I'm surprised, the time is interpreted by the sender (rather than by the syslogd-recipient), but it is -- and I want it to be local, without copying /etc/localtime into the chroot tree. What happens if you set TZ in the environment which syslogd is started up from? -- -Chuck ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
