-===== Monitoring Node Status ===== +Synchronet for *nix-like OSes can send its server and services output to your system's ''[[wp>syslog]]'' facility (e.g. ''rsyslogd'' on Debian Linux). When running ''sbbs'' as a daemon, syslog-output is automatically enabled. When running ''sbbs'' interactively (not daemonized), syslog output can be enabled by passing the ''syslog'' command-line option to ''sbbs'':
-  $watch /sbbs/exec/node list+
  
-<code>   +  $ sbbs syslog

-Node  1: User #1 posting message via telnet (MP) [U] +The syslog functionality is configurable via the ''LogFacility'' (default: ''U'') and ''LogIdent'' (default: ''synchronet'') values of the ''[[config:nix|[UNIX]]]'' section of your ''[[dir:ctrl]]/[[config:sbbs.ini]]'' file.

 The ''syslog'' output of the Synchronet daemon will usually go to a file in your ''/var/log'' directory.
