syslog ident configuration
Posted: Sat Oct 13, 2012 5:47 pm
When zoneminder logs to syslog it uses an ident (program name) that contains
a non-static component. The zma application logs with ident of
zma_m1
zma_m2
...
it appears that the _m# is appended based on some camera number.
Although this may be useful for humans to read, it is extremely problematic for feeding into
any kind of log processing application/infrastructure.
Is there any way to configure the ident/program name that is used when logging to syslog?
Thanks for your time.
