I am trying to get the authentication logs of FTP,Telnet,SSH,inetd from the syslog file. But my output for every type of authentications - success & failure keep differing everytime i view them.
The output does not show the priority code (emerg, or 0, in any case). How do I get the priority code to be listed in the log as well so I can get my log viewer to differentiate message priority?
Hello Everyone,
Hope you all are doing great!

Sys::Syslog(3pm) Perl Programmers Reference Guide Sys::Syslog(3pm)NAME
Sys::Syslog, openlog, closelog, setlogmask, syslog - Perl interface to the UNIX syslog(3) calls
SYNOPSIS
use Sys::Syslog; # all except setlogsock, or:
use Sys::Syslog qw(:DEFAULT setlogsock); # default set, plus setlogsock
setlogsock $sock_type;
openlog $ident, $logopt, $facility;
syslog $priority, $format, @args;
$oldmask = setlogmask $mask_priority;
closelog;
DESCRIPTION
Sys::Syslog is an interface to the UNIX syslog(3) program. Call "syslog()" with a string priority and a list of "printf()" args just like
syslog(3).
Syslog provides the functions:
openlog $ident, $logopt, $facility
$ident is prepended to every message. $logopt contains zero or more of the words pid, ndelay, nowait. The cons option is ignored,
since the failover mechanism will drop down to the console automatically if all other media fail. $facility specifies the part of the
system
syslog $priority, $format, @args
If $priority permits, logs ($format, @args) printed as by "printf(3V)", with the addition that %m is replaced with "$!" (the latest
error message).
setlogmask $mask_priority
Sets log mask $mask_priority and returns the old mask.
setlogsock $sock_type [$stream_location] (added in 5.004_02)
Sets the socket type to be used for the next call to "openlog()" or "syslog()" and returns TRUE on success, undef on failure.
A value of 'unix' will connect to the UNIX domain socket returned by the "_PATH_LOG" macro (if your system defines it) in syslog.ph. 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.
closelog
Closes the log file.
Note that "openlog" now takes three arguments, just like openlog(3).
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)SEE ALSO syslog(3)AUTHOR
