Syslog facility

greg

Hi All,

I am having trouble with pointing the syslog messages to a particular
facility. Is this the right way to point it at facility local1:

Syslog.open('name_of_prog', facility = Syslog::LOG_LOCAL1)
Syslog.log(Syslog::LOG_NOTICE, "message_goes_here")
Syslog.close

I would really appreciate your help!

Thanks,
Greg

The way I do it is:
-----
require 'syslog'
....
$log = Syslog.open('progname', Syslog::LOG_PID, Syslog::LOG_LOCAL1)
....
$log.info("messsage")
------

Exactly what I needed! Thanks!

I closed the log with `Syslog::close'. Is this the way you do it?

Thanks in advance!

I don't bother. I generally use syslog with programs that run indefinitely
and want the logging to continue until the system is rebooted or the
process is terminated on purpose.

Does anyone know if this works on OS X? Where would I look for the
output?
