actually -- I think --listen-ip would do that. Tell it to bind to just one interface with that.
Actualy justin, that's exactly what he wanted to prevent.. I wanted it to NOT bind. Not to an interface, not to a loopback, not anything in the inet domain.
So can you do --listen-ip 0.0.0.0 or some such to disable inet binding entirely?
actually, it does too support unix-domain sockets ;)
Yes, I self corrected on that one. Does binding to a unix domain socket disable inet binding?
...and, actually, in 3.0.0 you can log to file or to stderr.
That's good to know. There are a few people, such as Dimitrios, who have a legitamate use for it. However, my money is that 90% of the people who use it are people who just don't know how to configure syslogd. :)
(Sorry Matt -- just had to catch you on those ;)
Hey, I'm hardly perfect, although I am at least good. :)
