2.3.11 syslogfacility

Syntax:
syslogFacility <facility>
Example:
syslogFacility local0

Some Husky programs are able to write logs via syslogd instead of via log file. For those programs, this keyword definies which facility to use for writing to the syslog. Syslogd will use this facility name to decide which syslog logfile the log messages will go to. Common names that can be used include mail, news, uucp, local0. The exact values that can be used depend upon your operating system. Refer to the man page for `syslog.conf' or `/usr/include/sys/syslog.h' for more information.

Logging via syslogd is only supported on UNIX platforms, and currently only used by `herp', but not by any other Husky program. If a Husky program logs via log file or via syslog or both depends on the program and not on your fidoconfig file. Consult the individual program's documentation.
