AIX 5.2 Syslog : Help needed

Hi all,

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?

Regards
Kamadana

Log::Dispatch::Syslog(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				  Log::Dispatch::Syslog(3)

NAME
Log::Dispatch::Syslog - Object for logging to system log. SYNOPSIS
use Log::Dispatch; my $log = Log::Dispatch->new ( outputs => [ [ 'Syslog', min_level => 'info', ident => 'Yadda yadda' ] ] ); $log->emerg( "Time to die." ); DESCRIPTION
This module provides a simple object for sending messages to the system log (via UNIX syslog calls). Note that logging may fail if you try to pass UTF-8 characters in the log message. If logging fails and warnings are enabled, the error message will be output using Perl's "warn". CONSTRUCTOR
The constructor takes the following parameters in addition to the standard parameters documented in Log::Dispatch::Output: o ident ($) This string will be prepended to all messages in the system log. Defaults to $0. o logopt ($) A string containing the log options (separated by any separator you like). See the openlog(3) and Sys::Syslog docs for more details. Defaults to ''. o facility ($) Specifies what type of program is doing the logging to the system log. Valid options are 'auth', 'authpriv', 'cron', 'daemon', 'kern', 'local0' through 'local7', 'mail, 'news', 'syslog', 'user', 'uucp'. Defaults to 'user' o socket ($) Tells what type of socket to use for sending syslog messages. Valid options are listed in "Sys::Syslog". If you don't provide this, then we let "Sys::Syslog" simply pick one that works, which is the preferred option, as it makes your code more portable. AUTHOR
