Hello,
I have several programs that exclusively log to stderr, awaiting a logging to
like DJB's multilog or splogger to catch that output. With qmail, for
example, I've been using DJB's daemontools until now, and want to switch to
InitNG.
I've seen that InitNG is able to catch such logging output, too, and redirect
it to syslog via the syslog plugin. Looking into the code, however, I found
that the plugin might be fixed to use the LOCAL1 facility.
Is this correct? I want my qmail logging stuff (of course) to go into the MAIL
facility, so LOCAL1 doesn't seem to be the right destination.
Eric
