NAME

Paranoid::Log::Syslog - Log Facility Syslog

VERSION

Top

$Id: Syslog.pm,v 0.83 2010/06/03 19:04:07 acorliss Exp $

SYNOPSIS

Top

  use Paranoid::Log;

  enableFacility('local3', 'syslog', 'debug', '+');
  enableFacility('local3', 'syslog', 'debug', '+', 'my-daemon');

DESCRIPTION

Top

This module implements UNIX syslog support for logging purposes. Which should seem natural given that the entire Paranoid::Log API is modeled closely after it.

SUBROUTINES/METHODS

Top

NOTE: Given that this module is not intended to be used directly nothing is exported.

init

log

remove

dump

DEPENDENCIES

Top

o

Paranoid::Debug

o

Unix::Syslog

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS

Top

Because we're keeping a connection to the syslogger open we don't support enabling multiple facilities that log as different idents, etc. The first syslog facility that gets activated will set those parameters.
