There're other benefits among the easy configuration. Metalog is buffered and it's really low resurce consuming. I've used it with gentoo (it's the recommended logger for gentoo with syslog-ng) and worked like a charm. ITOH it's buffered architecture make it really bad for developers or kernel debuggers as log messages does not arise instantly, but when the buffer is big enought to write it out (the buffering can be disabled). I'm almost sure it can confuse users/developers. IMHO it's the best logger for low end machines. -- Iago Rubio - Home page * http://www.iagorubio.com - Last project * http://cssed.sourceforge.net - GPG Keyserv * pgp.rediris.es id=0x909BD4DD
