CLOGIT(3)						     Common Library Functions							 CLOGIT(3)

NAME
Clogit - log server messages in local log or in system logger SYNOPSIS
#include "Clog.h" int Cinitlog (char *cmd, char *logfile) int Clogit (int level, char *func, char *msg, ...) int Cvlogit (int level, char *func, char *msg, va_list ap) DESCRIPTION
Cinitlog initializes the server logging routines. Clogit logs server messages in a local log or in the system logger. Cvlogit is the same as Clogit but takes a va_list instead of a variable number of arguments. cmd specifies a string to be prepended to the syslog messages. logfile specifies a path for the server log file. If set to syslog, the system logger will be used. By default, only messages with level at least as important as LOG_INFO will be logged. The level threshold can be changed with the environment variable LOG_PRIORITY. level is associated with the message. The possible values, in order of decreasing importance are: LOG_EMERG LOG_ALERT LOG_CRIT LOG_ERR LOG_WARNING LOG_NOTICE LOG_INFO LOG_DEBUG func is the name of the function that issues the message. msg is a format as in printf. RETURN VALUE
These routines return 0 if the operation was successful or -1 if the operation failed. In the latter case, serrno is set appropriately. ERRORS
EFAULT logfile is a NULL pointer. ENAMETOOLONG The length of logfile exceeds CA_MAXPATHLEN. LCG
