Does anyone out there in UnixLand know how to get the kernel
of Interactive 386/ix Unix 3.2 to log it's error messages to
a file or pipe?
Also, can anyone tell me the e-mail address of Interactive?
Thanks in advance -

Install Operating System Message in the kernel (using kconfig ADD FACILITY). After you build and rebooted the system there is a new device called /dev/osm. Kernal message sended to the console are also sended to /dev/osm os do a simple 'cat /dev/osm >errorlogfile &' and all messages are going also to errorlogfile. A simple shell script to include in /etc/rc2.d doing this on system boot: #ident "@(#)syslog 1.0 - 91/06/19" LOGFILE=/usr/spool/log/syslog # syslog control case $1 in 'start') set `who -r` if [ $9 = "S" ] then echo System started at: `date` >>$LOGFILE cat /dev/osm >>$LOGFILE & fi ;; 'stop') /bin/ps -ef | grep 'cat /dev/osm' | grep -v grep | while read d1 pid d2 do if [ "${pid}" != "" ] then /bin/kill ${pid} fi done ;; *) echo "usage: /etc/init.d/syslog {start|stop}" ;; esac =============================================================================== Peter Jannesen Network Communication Systems (N.C.S), The Netherlands Phone: +31104130093 Fax: +31104146452 Address: Westbaak 96a Email: peter@ncs.nl 3012 KM Rotterdam, The Netherlands ===============================================================================
