.SH NAME
|
|
syslog-ng, syslogd
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
There are different syslog daemon implementations
|
|
supported as the system's syslog service, currently
|
|
.IR syslogd ,
|
|
.IR syslog-ng \ and
|
|
.IR rsyslogd
|
|
|
|
The first installed daemon activates itself for the
|
|
syslog service. Starting with openSUSE-11.2,
|
|
it is
|
|
.IR rsyslogd ,
|
|
before it was
|
|
.IR syslog-ng .
|
|
But this depends on the software selection during
|
|
the installation.
|
|
|
|
The name of the daemon used as syslog service is
|
|
specified in the
|
|
.br
|
|
.BR SYSLOG_DAEMON
|
|
variable in
|
|
.BR /etc/sysconfig/syslog .
|
|
|
|
The \fIyast2 sysconfig\fR module provides a comfortable
|
|
way to switch to another installed daemon and restart
|
|
the service.
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
.BR /etc/init.d/syslog
|
|
init script is able to handle all supported daemons.
