Logging Reference

SafeFire Links uses SYSLOG facility to produce log files. Installation and configuration of this utility is described in TCP/IP Command Reference.

Also SafeFire Links can output its log file to stderr. To redirect this output to file you can use following command:

sfppp -Cconfig_file_name 2>log_file_name

To make thing easier we also provided copyf.cmd utility. It is used to perform two following tasks:

  1. Add timestamp to log output
  2. Both copy log to file and show it to user
You can use following command to produce log file with copyf.cmd:
sfppp -Cconfig_file_name 2>&1 | copyf.cmd log_file_name
copyf.cmd can be found in the BIN subdirectory of the SafeFire Links package.

Instruction above are applicable for GUI version of software too.
