I opened a bug report with the perl people, and I got back the following response from Slaven Rezic:
] This does not seem to be a problem in 5.8.0's Sys::Syslog. According ] to the documentation, by default the types tcp, udp, unix, stream, ] console are tried in order. It also seems to work on my FreeBSD 4.7 ] system (syslogd is started with -s flag) without specifying ] setlogsock(). Perl 5.8 does not seem to be a part of 4.x, is it in 5.0 or -CURRENT? -- Leo Bicknell - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - CCIE 3440 PGP keys at http://www.ufp.org/~bicknell/ Read TMBG List - [EMAIL PROTECTED], www.tmbg.org
