[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, One of the things I noticed when trying to add uniform logging for bsnmpd (syslog.conf files, newsyslog.conf files) is that it clashes with net-snmp (which uses /var/log/snmpd.conf, program name exposed to syslog(9) is “snmpd"). Unfortunately, because the prefix is uniform between many files, changing just the log file prefix will change a number of other items. I’m asking for input on the following change: - /etc/snmpd.conf -> /etc/bsnmpd.conf - /var/run/snmpd.pid -> /var/run/bsnmpd.conf I would also, create bsnmpd configs for newsyslog and syslogd when making this change. The pidfile change is rather straightforward, but the config file might catch some folks. Are there any major concerns with renaming the config file? Thanks, -Ngie [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: GPGTools - https://gpgtools.org iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJYXb3qAAoJEPWDqSZpMIYVmyEP/RFyA7sR6y0VPd8uaWkfSQSC pGEL8KwFPxpzVKErGytfW0pTXwlEDW4/YSWKwRN44LQYlD4cmMAqElo3x8G5xmeW 6QSWyBRVhQlGaPHMITpVFNNDsm6H423TMcUdcPCqmujan1+Rq7qeNqD/tyxYDJ6n 49YotknFmRL8FKBuj4CcxaTKnVUYvZvG0hzoFAP0aYJR3O3GAy6XE3wMqgFwhFKp QPWCyPMyoIBKmz78Dcot7Yosv/GltEf8SHy2MEJV15kzDEVoVvqdSR6Pvd+MUnKr QNtFx67ZXBiHbVLlvO7ffrNBTBYJdotfbxA13DsKf43BhDRr9TMqFuVrePUOGz0g WCdIcM4A2BsV038cLZIO7yllWiYl/TipYFFHiaQIzfG9SforLtbOTiAxjPMyQF/t wOa7wtXhheafgfq+VhCZoPnNPsJIH9luBTbGdSnaH0Tl8BZqL1JHDowwEDW0PTGV eIJ9xk87pFUwPQ0J4aiomXfQeBprjFY6IXvTygeFaLlemd9bpVL/yOwI7sMmMTkh uerWBeSxthV3+GQ+8KofZENcdixBVwXSQNCMpKbdflvga+wHzU/tmTwd03qpKY+5 5xN10KnRfB/EKp5hQSiVRBj6Pz173jWxXMOhBMY7lZ1BBZ3dv60CmV+aJX6Nvjty vYkBUNZ7iBcu3Gpb+PWo =CAgy -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----home | help
