local4.* is what I settled on, though thanks for the !slapd suggestion.
My concern though is with slapd's described functionality:
-n service-name
Specifies the service name for logging and other
purposes. Defaults to basename of argv[0], i.e.:
"slapd".
-l syslog-local-user
Selects the local user of the syslog(8) facility.
Values can be LOCAL0, LOCAL1, and so on, up to
LOCAL7. The default is LOCAL4. However, this
option is only permitted on systems that support
local users with the syslog(8) facility.
So, I've got "facility", "service-name", and "syslog-local-user" to deal
with. It seems to me that "service-name" ought to imply "facility" but
in fact "syslog-local-user" is implying "facility." Is this as it
should be and I'm just making naive assumptions, or may there be some
confusion between OpenLDAP 2 and FreeBSD syslog facility?
