Bug 76966 – program could of not start due to the bad config

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Portage Development

[Description Hinko Kocevar 2005-01-06 16:33:42 UTC]

After installin psad short note sys that syslogd user should put "syslogCmd = /usr/sbin/syslog-ng;" in the /etc/psad/psad.conf file. Correct syntax is "syslogdCmd      /usr/sbin/syslog-ng;"

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge psad
2. see few lines up after emerged
3.

Actual Results:  
...
 * Creating syslog FIFO for PSAD...                                            
                                                                     [ ok ]

 * Please be sure to edit /etc/psad/psad.conf to reflect your system's
 * configuration or it may not work correctly or start up. Specifically, check
 * the validity of the HOSTNAME setting and replace the EMAIL_ADDRESSES and
 * HOME_NET settings at the least.

 * If you are using a logger other than sysklogd, please be sure to change the
 * syslogCmd setting in /etc/psad/psad.conf. An example for syslog-ng users
 * would be:
 *              syslogCmd = /usr/sbin/syslog-ng;

Not a dev-portage bug.

Fixed in portage now. Thanks for the report.

I also fixed a few other things related to default config.
