My distro sets up cyrus to use the local6 facility for logging. I use the following lines in my syslog-ng.conf (in their proper sections): =================================== destination d_local6 { file("/var/log/mail/imapd.log"); }; filter f_local6 { facility(local6); }; log { source(src); filter(f_local6); destination(d_local6); flags(final); }; =================================== Works just fine. I put all of my mail logs in a separate directory (/var/log/mail/). Note - you may have to "touch" the destination file to create it. -- Chris ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
