9. Logging from DOSEmu

This section was written by Erik Mouw <J.A.K.Mouw@et.tudelft.nl> on February 17, 1996 and last edited on 21 June 1997.

This section documents the log facilities of DOSEMU.

DOSEMU is able to log all use with email or syslogd(8). If you want to enable logging, create a file /etc/dosemu.loglevel. In this file you can set the loglevel for both mail and syslog with a very simple format. Only four keywords are recognized:

mail_error

mail errors about mis-usage to root

mail_always

mail all DOSEMU usage to root

syslog_error

log all errors about mis-usage with syslogd(8)

syslog_always

log all DOSEMU usage with syslogd(8)

A line starting with a '#' is a comment.

Some samples:

mail_always

mail_error
syslog_always

syslog_errors
