.SH NAME
implogd \- IMP logger process
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B /etc/implogd
[
.B \-d
]
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.B implogd
daemon logs error messages from a local
.SM IMP,
placing them in the file
.BR /etc/adm/implog .
.PP
Entries in the file are variable in length. Each log
entry has a fixed length header of the form:
.PP
.ta 0.5i 1.0i 1.5i
.nf
struct sockstamp {
short sin_family;
u_short sin_port;
struct in_addr sin_addr;
time_t sin_time;
int sin_len;
};
.fi
.PP
followed, possibly, by the message received from the
.SM IMP.
Each time the logging process is started up it
places a time stamp entry in the file (a header with
.I sin_len
field set to 0).
.PP
The logging process will catch only those message from
the
.SM IMP
which are not processed by a protocol module,
such as IP. This implies the log should contain only
status information such as
``\s-1IMP\s0 going down''
other error messages, and, perhaps, stray
.SM NCP
messages.
