I don't know what error lead to this at Thomas' site, and I certainly agree that during debugging and for system errors, it is ok to use syslog. However connection problems are frequent with databases, and breaking the system logs of random apps because of a temporary connection problem isn't always appreciated. I don't use libnss-mysql myself though, I originally followed because I thought it was a postfix-mysql issue. Bye, -- Loïc Minier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Come, your destiny awaits!
