The logger command that MadeInGermany suggests should not be a privileged command. What command can you not issue?
Looking at your records from syslog.conf, the theory is that the first record that captures *.info along with other things to /var/log/messages should actually capture all messages of severity level info or higher.
Can anyone tell me if there is a way to remove the encryption from Data CDs by UNIX? Or does anyone know of a program that can remove the encryption?
I would much appreciate it!
Thanks,

Hello. I'm a complete newbie to C programming. I have a C program that wasn't written by me where I need to write some wrappers around it to automate and make it easier for a client to use. The problem is that the program accepts standard input to control the program... I'm hoping to find a simple... (6 Replies)
I'm reading through this guide, BigAdmin Feature Article: Using Solaris JumpStart With the Solaris 10 OS for x86/x64 Platforms, and I was wondering if there was more to the bash scripts than just the example given (see above link) like for begin1 and begin2 and finish1 and finish2.

Hi All,
I have a (probably) very simple tar question on a Solaris box that I'm a little embarrassed to ask. After repeatedly checking man tar and searching for solutions online (I'm not sure of the correct "keywords" to look for)
The question is:

Hello, I have a quick question that is not related to homework in any way shape or form (in case anyone wanted to know). My question is thus:
I have a file "temp" that has the two values say "5" and "3" (separated by a white space). Now, I want to simply write an if-else statement that reads... (10 Replies)

This is my first post and I'm very new to programming. I would like help creating a simple perl or bash script that I will be using in my work as a junior bioinformatician.

logger
LOGGER(1) BSD General Commands Manual LOGGER(1)NAME
logger -- a shell command interface to the syslog(3) system log module
SYNOPSIS
logger [-isd] [-f file] [-p pri] [-t tag] [-u socket] [message ...]
DESCRIPTION
Logger makes entries in the system log. It provides a shell command interface to the syslog(3) system log module.
Options:
-i Log the process id of the logger process with each line.
-s Log the message to standard error, as well as the system log.
-f file Log the specified file.
-p pri Enter the message with the specified priority. The priority may be specified numerically or as a ``facility.level'' pair. For
example, ``-p local3.info'' logs the message(s) as informational level in the local3 facility. The default is ``user.notice.''
-t tag Mark every line in the log with the specified tag.
-u sock Write to socket as specified with socket instead of builtin syslog routines.
-d Use a datagram instead of a stream connection to this socket.
-- End the argument list. This is to allow the message to start with a hyphen (-).
message Write the message to log; if not specified, and the -f flag is not provided, standard input is logged.
The logger utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
Valid facility names are: auth, authpriv (for security information of a sensitive nature), cron, daemon, ftp, kern, lpr, mail, news, security
(deprecated synonym for auth), syslog, user, uucp, and local0 to local7, inclusive.
Valid level names are): alert, crit, debug, emerg, err, error (deprecated synonym for err), info, notice, panic (deprecated synonym for
emerg), warning, warn (deprecated synonym for warning). For the priority order and intended purposes of these levels, see syslog(3).
EXAMPLES
logger System rebooted
logger -p local0.notice -t HOSTIDM -f /dev/idmc
SEE ALSO syslog(3), syslogd(8)STANDARDS
The logger command is expected to be IEEE Std 1003.2 (``POSIX.2'') compatible.
AVAILABILITY
The logger command is part of the util-linux-ng package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux-ng/.
