Since the logfiles don't all have to be on the same filesystem, it is probably wrong to do this as a command line option. If you were going to do it, it should probably be a per-logline option, like calling fsync. It isn't too late to claim the "%" character as magic in syslog.conf ;-) David. _______________________________________________ cvs-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
