11. Syslog

samhain will translate its own severities into syslog priorities as follows:

SeveritySyslog priority
debugLOG_DEBUG
infoLOG_INFO
noticeLOG_NOTICE
warnLOG_WARNING
markLOG_ERR
errLOG_ERR
critLOG_CRIT
alertLOG_ALERT

Messages larger than 959 chars will be split into several messages. By default, samhain will use the identity 'samhain', the syslog facility LOG_AUTHPRIV, and will log its PID (process identification number) in addition to the message.

The syslog facility can be modified via the directive SyslogFacility= LOG_xxx in the Misc section of the configuration file.

The syslog priority to be used for heartbeat messages (timestamps) can be selected with the directive SyslogMapStampTo= LOG_xxx in the Misc section of the configuration file. The default is LOG_ERR.
