That's actually the reason for allowing you to specify such things...to segregate different kinds of messages into different files. Example: mail.emerg /var/log/mail/emergency.log mail.alert /var/log/mail/alert.log mail.crit /var/log/mail/critical.log mail.err /var/log/mail/error.log mail.warning /var/log/mail/warning.log mail.notice /var/log/mail/notice.log mail.info /var/log/mail/info.log mail.debug /var/log/mail/debug.log Other than that, I know of no way to get the facility or priority to be displayed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - The problem with being poor is that it takes up all of your time - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
