I didn't get the point clearly. What I need is to separate the log files from each of the modules. For example, I need all of the log files coming from XAPP module. In the main log, it can be distinguished by searching for the following line: XAPP >.. Then you see subsequent lines that are logs coming from this module. Then the logs from another module will come following the previous one. I think you code is not doing this . Can you please correct me on my understanding of your code body? _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
