Has anyone successfully ported syslog(3) and syslogd from 4.2 or 4.3 BSD to HP-UX 5.3 running on a 9000 series 300? It doesn't look like it would be too hard to do, but I don't want to reinvent the wheel. Tom Arons Inet: arons@iris.ucdavis.edu Bitnet: TGARONS@UCDAVIS UUCP: {ucbvax,lll-crg}!ucdavis!iris!arons

I once implemented a syslogd for HP-UX using message queues. I have posted it to comp.sources.unix some time ago, but I can mail it if you cannot find it. Features: (almost) BSD compatible, no network support, runs as a daemon, communicates with message queues. If no daemon is running, calling 'syslog' is effectivily a no-op. I have used it when I tried to get sendmail running. -- Johan Vromans | jv@mh.nl via European backbone Multihouse N.V., Gouda, the Netherlands | uucp: ..{uunet!}mcvax!mh.nl!jv "It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness"
