Syslog
The Syslog provides logging and report capabilities that you can use to diagnose problems and fine-tune server performance.
The Syslog page is available for the
Internet Services object, for the Mailing Lists object, and for NetWare
Server objects. The Syslog settings provided for the Internet Services
object establish defaults for your NIMS system. Settings provided for the
Mailing Lists object and individual NetWare Server objects allow you to
tailor logging for specific circumstances. Specify the Syslog settings
click Apply to
save the settings.
Log Detail
Select the types of events you want recorded in the Syslog. Selecting
Emergency logs the least information; selecting Debug logs the most
information. Settings are cumulative, so that by selecting Debug, all
lesser levels of events are also logged.
Log File
If no filename is specified, the Syslog is written to SYS:\ETC\SYSLOG. If
you specify a filename, the file is written to the SYS:\ETC\SYSLOG.D
directory. You can specify a full pathname to place the Syslog in a
different directory.
Override Global Configuration with
Above Settings
For the Mailing Lists object or an individual NetWare Server object, the
Syslog page initially displays the default settings provided on the
Internet Services object. Change the Log Detail settings
select

click
Apply to customize the Syslog settings for the current object. If you
deselect Override
click
Apply, the server-specific settings are saved but are not used; the
default settings from the Internet Services Syslog are used instead.
