[mrtg] Logging

[Brian E. Seppanen]

Hi:

In prior versions of mrtg, such as 2.9.4, if you were running mrtg as a
daemon it would not log.  Has this changed in the newer releases?   We got
around  this by doing the following when we called mrtg
/usr/bin/nohup /usr/local/mrtg/bin/mrtg /home/mrtg/main.conf

The error output would be captured in nohup.out.  That's a function of
using nohup however.  This seems to cause problems when we try and start
newer versions of mrtg however.  I'd like to upgrade to a newer version of
mrtg, however, I need to be able to capture any daemon messages.  Will
2.9.10 do logging to syslog?

Has anyone found a solution to this?  Thanks,

Brian Seppanen
