- I have a modified syslogd which can use unix domain sockets as well as
- internet ones. I have also been working on getting it to read messages
- produced by the kernel and record those as well by using the syslog
- system call. It does work (including the kernel messages), but I am not
- too happy with the implementation - I had to fork a second copy of syslogd
- to read from the kernel (because I don't think I can detect changes to the
- kernel log via select).
-
- Is there a way of detecting kernel messages via select?
-
- I will clean up the code a little and upload it (tomorrow I hope). No
- guarantees on the kernel logging part of it, it does seem to work, but I
- haven't tried stressing it.
