SYNOPSIS

syslog.pl [options]

DESCRIPTION

This program shows how to use the Sys::Syslog module to use the UNIX system logger.

In order to see the output of this program your syslogd must log user events. This means that your /etc/syslogd.conf needs to have a line like this: user.* /var/log/user Then you have to re-run syslogd (/etc/rc.d/init.d/syslog restart). After that do a "tail -f /var/log/user" and run this demo.
