I doubt that if it were installed on OpenSolaris that it would work for processing logs for local programs. This is because the things that do the logging are going to use libc's implementation of syslog(3C), which logs via a door (see libdoor(3lib)). Doors are unique to [Open]Solaris and as such syslog-ng is unlikely to be listening for log messages at /etc/.syslog_door. -- Mike Gerdts http://mgerdts.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
