Hi all,

With runit, you can either use the "runit way" of recording log files,
in which one looks in the daemon's run directory for something
called .main, or you can use one of several logging programs. I'm using
logger, and a Devuan ASCII VM guest I downloaded has the logger program
and I didn't install it.

The logger program appears to put messages with the correct timestamp,
correct tag, and message, in the proper log file. This log file
was /var/log/messages for logins to ssh.

I have to choose one method of doing logs for Devuan's daemon log run
scripts. Is doing it with the logger program OK with you?

    syslog daemons are very convenient, rsyslogd, for example, features a lot of methods to dispatch/centralize logs on the LAN and perform several other actions. It is very usefull in an environment with several interoperating hosts. The pprinciple is to not write the log to a file but use the syslog mechanism (socket and lock) and let the syslog daemon (eg rsyslogd) manage the logs.
