Well, I guess that's what I get for writing a run-on sentence (sometimes referred to as "writing a paragraph using only one period"). Try reading it as: "Improving interactions between log-files-given-on-command line and config-entries-that-use-G" It's the combination of the two which can run into problems, so that is one issue, not two separate issues. I should also note that this only MFC's some of the updates that were made for improving those interactions. This won't fix the problems that come up when mixing the two. I'll soon MFC the remaining newsyslog updates, which will include more improvements in this area. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu
