Call C with a string priority and a list of C args just like C. Syslog provides the functions: =over 4 =item openlog $ident, $logopt, $facility I<$ident> is prepended to every message. I<$logopt> contains zero or more of the words I, I, I. The cons option is ignored, since the failover mechanism will drop down to the console automatically if all other media fail. I<$facility> specifies the part of the system =item syslog $priority, $format, @args If I<$priority> permits, logs I<($format, @args)> printed as by C, with the addition that I<%m> is replaced with C<"$!"> (the latest error message). =item setlogmask $mask_priority Sets log mask I<$mask_priority> and returns the old mask. =item setlogsock $sock_type [$stream_location] (added in 5.004_02) Sets the socket type to be used for the next call to C or C and returns TRUE on success, undef on failure. A value of 'unix' will connect to the UNIX domain socket returned by the C<_PATH_LOG> macro (if your system defines it) in F. A value of 'stream' will connect to the stream indicated by the pathname provided as the optional second parameter. A value of 'inet' will connect to an INET socket (either tcp or udp, tried in that order) returned by getservbyname(). 'tcp' and 'udp' can also be given as values. The value 'console' will send messages directly to the console, as for the 'cons' option in the logopts in openlog(). A reference to an array can also be passed as the first parameter. When this calling method is used, the array should contain a list of sock_types which are attempted in order. The default is to try tcp, udp, unix, stream, console. Giving an invalid value for sock_type will croak. =item closelog Closes the log file. =back Note that C now takes three arguments, just like C. =head1 EXAMPLES openlog($program, 'cons,pid', 'user'); syslog('info', 'this is another test'); syslog('mail|warning', 'this is a better test: %d', time); closelog(); syslog('debug', 'this is the last test'); setlogsock('unix'); openlog("$program $$", 'ndelay', 'user'); syslog('notice', 'fooprogram: this is really done'); setlogsock('inet'); $! = 55; syslog('info', 'problem was %m'); # %m == $! in syslog(3) =head1 SEE ALSO L =head1 AUTHOR Tom Christiansen EFE and Larry Wall EFE.
