################################################################################ # # Program: syslog-ng init script for Red Hat # ################################################################################ # the following information is for use by chkconfig # if you are want to manage this through chkconfig (as you should), you must # first must add syslog-ng to chkconfig's list of startup scripts it # manages by typing: # # chkconfig --add syslog-ng # # DO NOT CHANGE THESE LINES (unless you know what you are doing) # chkconfig: 2345 12 88 # description: syslog-ng is the next generation of the syslog daemon. \ # syslog-ng gives you the flexibility of logging not only by facility and \ # severity, but also by host, message content, date, etc. it can also replace \ # klogd's function of logging kernel messages # # This following block of lines is correct, do not change!
