Package: bsdutils Version: 2.28.1-1 Tags: patch logger by default uses /dev/log in kfreebsd. It should be /var/run/log as fifos are not allowed in FreeBSD devfs.
As a workaround you can do: logger -u /var/run/log bla (this problem found by Peter Czanik / @PCzanik) -- Jon Boden ubuntuBSD -- The power of FreeBSD kernel with familiarity of Ubuntu OS! http://www.ubuntubsd.org/ -- https://twitter.com/ubuntuBSD
