NAME
Paranoid::Log::Syslog - Log Facility Syslog VERSION
$Id: Syslog.pm,v 0.83 2010/06/03 19:04:07 acorliss Exp $ SYNOPSIS
use Paranoid::Log; enableFacility('local3', 'syslog', 'debug', '+'); enableFacility('local3', 'syslog', 'debug', '+', 'my-daemon'); DESCRIPTION
This module implements UNIX syslog support for logging purposes. Which should seem natural given that the entire Paranoid::Log API is modeled closely after it. SUBROUTINES
/METHODS NOTE: Given that this module is not intended to be used directly nothing is exported. init log remove dump DEPENDENCIES
o Paranoid::Debug o Unix::Syslog BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
Because we're keeping a connection to the syslogger open we don't support enabling multiple facilities that log as different idents, etc. The first syslog facility that gets activated will set those parameters. AUTHOR
