This optional clause creates a SYSLOG logger, which logs all messages
with a priority level of Trace or more to the syslog system.
<Log SYSLOG> requires
Sys::Syslog. The logging is in addition to any logging
to the file defined by LogFile. For more information, see
Section 3.7.13.
Messages are logged to syslog with priority levels that depend on the
severity of the message. There are 5 defined priority levels and they are
logged to the equivalent syslog priority. See the Trace parameter for a
description of the priority levels supported.
Ensure that your host's syslog is configured to do something with err,
warning, notice, info, and debug priority messages from the Syslog
facility you specify, otherwise you do not see any messages. See
/etc/syslog.conf or its equivalent on your
system.
Tip
The logger becomes active when it is encountered in the
configuration file. It logs parse errors from later in the configuration
file and subsequent run-time events. Parse errors from earlier in the
configuration file are not logged through this clause.
Tip
You can place a
<Log xxxxxx>
clause inside any clause in the configuration file. This causes messages
originating from within that clauses code to be logged with the logger
prior to being logged with any global loggers. This can be handy for
debugging or tracing only certain Realms or AuthBy clauses:
<Handler>
# This will log messages from within the Handler
<Log SYSLOG>
#Trace 2
...
</Log>
</Handler>
