After compiling QPOPPER (beta1) and configuring it to use LOG_LOCAL2 as the facility, entering local2.* /var/log/pop.log in the syslog.conf, and running syslogd in debug mode, it still fails. The command to log is being received, but initially it was going to USERS. This is wrong, and I've see this happen in other versions of syslog. Presently, I can not locate any errors in compilation on my part, as other things appear to be working well. Just facility LOCAL* isn't working. >How-To-Repeat: Pass a call to openlog (in QPOPPER's case pop_log) and use the facility LOG_LOCAL2 (or redefine it in popper.h). Compile, run syslogd in debug mode, walla. No log. >Fix: Unknown. But I'll continue to track it down. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
