This is the porting to Minix of the "syslogd" facility
available on many other *nix systems.
Since I' m still using an old 286 machine for my Minix
environment, I choosed to start from an old implementation
which has only the basic features. The result is a smaller
program, more suitable for 16 bits machines.
The file syslog.c should be included in C compiler library
(libc.a) or directly linked with prorams requiring syslog.
If you choose the former solution, you must recreate the
library. After having copied the file syslog.c to the
directory '/usr/src/libs/other' you have to modify the
Makefile in this directory adding syslog.c.
Then issue a 'make' command in the '/usr/src/libs' and wait
a while. Then issue 'make install' to install the new object.
NOTE: The network must be configured, up and running for
the package to work
