I'm sure about it. You know, all of these discussions on TABS and SPACES in this mailing list, started when I had some problems with my syslogd.conf (you see, I've had some problems with logging for a long time!!!) and sent a mail there. Then someone kindly noticed me about the difference between spaces and tabs! >Can you "logger -p lpr.info message" and get a message in /var/log/messages? >(Just verifying that syslogd is working.) Yes, it works. I also used the syslogd with switch -d (debug mode), as it (syslogd -d) works, it mentions whenever it logs something, it doesn't log anything realted to TELNET or FTP to "inetd.log" (the files is supposed to log the inetd-related matters).
