Many network appliances log a little to RAM with a circular utility, |
| 12 |
overwriting the oldest logs when the allocated memory is used up, along |
| 13 |
with the option to send everything to a remote syslog server. My network |
| 14 |
appliance of choice, m0n0wall, uses the FreeBSD syslogd with circular |
| 15 |
logging (clog). |

Is there a circular logging utility in Portage? Is the clog patch to |
| 19 |
syslogd trivial to apply? I'd be curious if anyone on this list has some |
| 20 |
stories with circular logging. |
