Hi there, Support has recently been added to try to cover the system logging in Dragora 3 (dev). Such as 'logrotate' (and its dependency, 'popt'). The same one runs as a cron job to rotate the logs...
I am internalizing with the perp documentation, and in communication with Wayne Marshall (author). In concerns about things that are missing to complete the system logging in Dragora, e.g sysklogd, the runscripts for each service/daemon; My concern is on how to fit the whole scheme for perp/logrotate/sysklogd and services for persistent process. I forgot that perp includes tinylog[1], a program which provides the same functionality that logrotate. Its use is simple and seems quite reliable. Wayne suggests making use of tinylog, in combination with socklog[2] instead of sysklogd; the strategy would be to extent that services are setup to run under perp supervision, each with a tinylog logger, and capture other syslog output being logged to the unix domain socket /dev/log, using the simple "socklog". What do you think? Any feedback is welcome. Links: [1] http://b0llix.net/perp/site.cgi?page=tinylog.8 [2] http://smarden.org/socklog/index.html
