Hey,

I did follow the FAQ at http://www.sympa.org/fom-serve/cache/83.html and I'm still not getting logs.

Here's my background info:

SYMPA 3.4.3.1
PERL 5.6.1
Solaris 9

My /etc/syslog.conf has:

local1.debug /var/log/sympa/log
(no spaces in front or behind)

My sympa.conf has:

## Do not forget to edit syslog.conf
syslog LOCAL1
## Communication mode with syslogd is either unix (via Unix sockets) or inet (use of UDP)
log_socket_type unix
log_level 0

I can use the "logger" command "logger -p local0.debug bleh" and I do get messages in /var/log/sympa/log

syslogd -d output is:

main(1): Started at time Tue Mar 11 12:22:21 2003
hnc_init(1): hostname cache configured 128 entry ttl:600
getnets(1): network is being turned off

logmsg(9): msg dispatcher started
sys_poll(10): sys_thread started
init(1): accepting messages from local system
init(1): syslogd: started

Is there a script that uses the Sympa Log.pm to test the log or perhaps some $HOME/bin command to run that should result in a message being printed to the logfile?

I have the same setup on a Solaris 8 box, but for some reason Solaris 9 doesn't want to play. Anyone have similar experiences?

Thanks in advance,
- John Douglass
