New submission from Tarek Ziadé <ziade.tarek at gmail.com>:
The syslog module allows to configure via openlog() the facility.
There's one missing feature though, I'd love to have in a new API: a way to read the syslog configuration, and in particular to know where each facility file is located on the system.
e.g.:
>>> from syslog import get_config, LOG_AUTH
>>> get_config(LOG_AUTH)
{'filename': '/var/log/auth.log', some other stuff}
I am not sure how easy it would be, looking at the syslog C API...
