HomeSYNOPSIS
os.syslog(message)
DESCRIPTION
The os.syslog() function writes message to the system message logger. The message is then forwarded to another machine if a syslog host is configured.
In development mode, the syslog messages are displayed by the Core4 Manager. In normal mode, syslog messages are forwarded to UDP port 514 of a configurable syslog host. The syslog is configured via the DHCP server.
For a complete discussion of the syslog features, please see the documentation of the os.openlog() function.
Notes
The system logging functionality was reused from OpenBSD.
