Is it just me or does 'syslogd -s' exhibit just a little bit too
much paranoia about allowing socket connections? I was futzing
with a Perl script that needed to syslog(3) some stuff and after
much hair pulling I realized that 'syslogd -s' didn't even allow
connections from localhost. Apparently Perl opens a socket
connection to syslog and with the '-s' syslogd doesn't read from
socket connections either from localhost or from hosts specified
with -a. This is a bad thing IMHO. Either I open syslogd up to
all socket connections (including from localhost) or I can't use
syslog from Perl.
