ConsoleMessage "Starting system log"

if [ -f /etc/syslog.conf ]; then

if ! pid=$(GetPID syslog); then

rm -f /dev/log

syslogd

else

echo "Warning: syslogd was not started"

}

2. Add a parameter -u to the end of the line that starts the

daemon:

syslogd -u

3. Save the file.

4. We also want to configure the system logger to use a spe-

cific file for messages from the router. We'll assume that

the router has been configured to use facility local5.

Edit /etc/syslog.conf and add a line for the router:

# Router is using local5

local5.* /var/log/router.log

This says that all messages with facility local5 should be

logged in /var/log/router.log. (Note that the two portions of

the line in syslog must be separated by tabs. Don't put any

spaces between the two.)

5. Now restart the system logger:

root# /System/Library/StartupItems/SystemLog/SystemLog

restart

6. You should also be using a firewall to protect your server.

Open the Sharing Preference pane in System Preferences.

7. Click on the Firewall tab and click New... to add a new

rule.
