Logging facility?

Default is LOG_USER if you do not specify the facility in syslog.openlog: openlog(ident[, logopt[, facility]])

Hi

Looking at twisted/python/syslog.py, there isn't any way to specify the logging facility that can be used:

class SyslogObserver: def __init__(self, prefix): syslog.openlog(prefix)

I'm using the twistd to start application tac file: twistd -y server.tac --pid /var/run/server.pid -q -o --syslog

Yes?

I apologize if my initial post wasn't clear enough. let me rephrase:

Is there a way to define the target syslog facility when logging to syslog when using twisted? According to the man page of twistd, you can define logging to be piped to syslog. For e.g.: twistd -y server.tac --pid /var/run/server.pid -q -o --syslog

Looking at twisted/python/syslog.py, there isn't a way to specify the logging facility that can be used:

class SyslogObserver: def __init__(self, prefix): syslog.openlog(prefix)

By default, the python syslog module will log to the LOG_USER facility.
