Description

We have this code in Main.cc:

static int syslog_facility = LOG_DAEMON;

// static void syslog_log_configure()
//
// Reads the syslog configuration variable
// and sets the global integer for the
// facility and calls open log with the
// new facility
//
static void
syslog_log_configure()
{
char *facility_str = NULL;
int facility;

TS_ReadConfigStringAlloc(facility_str, "proxy.config.syslog_facility");

if (facility_str == NULL || (facility = facility_string_to_int(facility_str)) < 0)

{ syslog(LOG_WARNING, "Bad or missing syslog facility. " "Defaulting to LOG_DAEMON"); }

else

{ syslog_facility = facility; closelog(); openlog("traffic_server", LOG_PID | LOG_NDELAY | LOG_NOWAIT, facility); }

}

But as far as I can tell, we never use syslog_facility.
