+=head1 NAME
+
+Sys::Hostname - Try every conceivable way to get hostname
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ use Sys::Hostname;
+ $host = hostname;
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Attempts several methods of getting the system hostname and
+then caches the result. It tries the first available of the C
+library's gethostname(), C<`$Config{aphostname}`>, uname(2),
+C<syscall(SYS_gethostname)>, C<`hostname`>, C<`uname -n`>,
+and the file F</com/host>. If all that fails it C<croak>s.
+
+All NULs, returns, and newlines are removed from the result.

+=head1 NAME
+
+Sys::Syslog - Perl interface to the UNIX syslog(3) calls
+
+=head1 VERSION
+
+Version 0.24
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ use Sys::Syslog; # all except setlogsock(), or:
+ use Sys::Syslog qw(:DEFAULT setlogsock); # default set, plus setlogsock()
+ use Sys::Syslog qw(:standard :macros); # standard functions, plus macros
+
+ openlog $ident, $logopt, $facility; # don't forget this
+ syslog $priority, $format, @args;
+ $oldmask = setlogmask $mask_priority;
+ closelog;
+
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+C<Sys::Syslog> is an interface to the UNIX C<syslog(3)> program.
+Call C<syslog()> with a string priority and a list of C<printf()> args
+just like C<syslog(3)>.
+
+You can find a kind of FAQ in L<"THE RULES OF SYS::SYSLOG">. Please read
+it before coding, and again before asking questions.
+
+
+=head1 EXPORTS
+
+C<Sys::Syslog> exports the following C<Exporter> tags:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item *
+
+C<:standard> exports the standard C<syslog(3)> functions:
+
+ openlog closelog setlogmask syslog
+
+=item *
+
+C<:extended> exports the Perl specific functions for C<syslog(3)>:
+
+ setlogsock
+
+=item *
+
+C<:macros> exports the symbols corresponding to most of your C<syslog(3)>
+macros and the C<LOG_UPTO()> and C<LOG_MASK()> functions.
+See L<"CONSTANTS"> for the supported constants and their meaning.
+
+=back
+
+By default, C<Sys::Syslog> exports the symbols from the C<:standard> tag.
+
+
+=head1 FUNCTIONS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<openlog($ident, $logopt, $facility)>
+
+Opens the syslog.
+C<$ident> is prepended to every message. C<$logopt> contains zero or
+more of the options detailed below. C<$facility> specifies the part
+of the system to report about, for example C<LOG_USER> or C<LOG_LOCAL0>:
+see L<"Facilities"> for a list of well-known facilities, and your
+C<syslog(3)> documentation for the facilities available in your system.
+Check L<"SEE ALSO"> for useful links. Facility can be given as a string
+or a numeric macro.
+
+This function will croak if it can't connect to the syslog daemon.
+
+Note that C<openlog()> now takes three arguments, just like C<openlog(3)>.
+
+B<You should use C<openlog()> before calling C<syslog()>.>
+
+B<Options>
+
+=over 4
+
+=item *
+
+C<cons> - This option is ignored, since the failover mechanism will drop
+down to the console automatically if all other media fail.
+
+=item *
+
+C<ndelay> - Open the connection immediately (normally, the connection is
+opened when the first message is logged).
+
+=item *
+
+C<nofatal> - When set to true, C<openlog()> and C<syslog()> will only
+emit warnings instead of dying if the connection to the syslog can't
+be established.
+
+=item *
+
+C<nowait> - Don't wait for child processes that may have been created
+while logging the message. (The GNU C library does not create a child
+process, so this option has no effect on Linux.)
+
+=item *
+
+C<perror> - Write the message to standard error output as well to the
+system log.
+
+=item *
+
+C<pid> - Include PID with each message.
+
+=back
+
+B<Examples>
+
+Open the syslog with options C<ndelay> and C<pid>, and with facility C<LOCAL0>:
+
+ openlog($name, "ndelay,pid", "local0");
+
+Same thing, but this time using the macro corresponding to C<LOCAL0>:
+
+ openlog($name, "ndelay,pid", LOG_LOCAL0);
+
+
+=item B<syslog($priority, $message)>
+
+=item B<syslog($priority, $format, @args)>
+
+If C<$priority> permits, logs C<$message> or C<sprintf($format, @args)>
+with the addition that C<%m> in $message or C<$format> is replaced with
+C<"$!"> (the latest error message).
+
+C<$priority> can specify a level, or a level and a facility. Levels and
+facilities can be given as strings or as macros. When using the C<eventlog>
+mechanism, priorities C<DEBUG> and C<INFO> are mapped to event type
+C<informational>, C<NOTICE> and C<WARNIN> to C<warning> and C<ERR> to
+C<EMERG> to C<error>.
+
+If you didn't use C<openlog()> before using C<syslog()>, C<syslog()> will
+try to guess the C<$ident> by extracting the shortest prefix of
+C<$format> that ends in a C<":">.
+
+B<Examples>
+
+ syslog("info", $message); # informational level
+ syslog(LOG_INFO, $message); # informational level
+
+ syslog("info|local0", $message); # information level, Local0 facility
+ syslog(LOG_INFO|LOG_LOCAL0, $message); # information level, Local0 facility
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<Note>
+
+C<Sys::Syslog> version v0.07 and older passed the C<$message> as the
+formatting string to C<sprintf()> even when no formatting arguments
+were provided. If the code calling C<syslog()> might execute with
+older versions of this module, make sure to call the function as
+C<syslog($priority, "%s", $message)> instead of C<syslog($priority,
+$message)>. This protects against hostile formatting sequences that
+might show up if $message contains tainted data.
+
+=back
+
+
+=item B<setlogmask($mask_priority)>
+
+Sets the log mask for the current process to C<$mask_priority> and
+returns the old mask. If the mask argument is 0, the current log mask
+is not modified. See L<"Levels"> for the list of available levels.
+You can use the C<LOG_UPTO()> function to allow all levels up to a
+given priority (but it only accept the numeric macros as arguments).
+
+B<Examples>
+
+Only log errors:
+
+ setlogmask( LOG_MASK(LOG_ERR) );
+
+Log everything except informational messages:
+
+ setlogmask( ~(LOG_MASK(LOG_INFO)) );
+
+Log critical messages, errors and warnings:
+
+ setlogmask( LOG_MASK(LOG_CRIT) | LOG_MASK(LOG_ERR) | LOG_MASK(LOG_WARNING) );
+
+Log all messages up to debug:
+
+ setlogmask( LOG_UPTO(LOG_DEBUG) );
+
+
+=item B<setlogsock($sock_type)>
+
+=item B<setlogsock($sock_type, $stream_location)> (added in Perl 5.004_02)
+
+Sets the socket type to be used for the next call to
+C<openlog()> or C<syslog()> and returns true on success,
+C<undef> on failure. The available mechanisms are:
+
+=over
+
+=item *
+
+C<"native"> - use the native C functions from your C<syslog(3)> library
+(added in C<Sys::Syslog> 0.15).
+
+=item *
+
+C<"eventlog"> - send messages to the Win32 events logger (Win32 only;
+added in C<Sys::Syslog> 0.19).
+
+=item *
+
+C<"tcp"> - connect to a TCP socket, on the C<syslog/tcp> or C<syslogng/tcp>
+service.
+
+=item *
+
+C<"udp"> - connect to a UDP socket, on the C<syslog/udp> service.
+
+=item *
+
+C<"inet"> - connect to an INET socket, either TCP or UDP, tried in that order.
+
+=item *
+
+C<"unix"> - connect to a UNIX domain socket (in some systems a character
+special device). The name of that socket is the second parameter or, if
+you omit the second parameter, the value returned by the C<_PATH_LOG> macro
+(if your system defines it), or F</dev/log> or F</dev/conslog>, whatever is
+writable.
+
+=item *
+
+C<"stream"> - connect to the stream indicated by the pathname provided as
+the optional second parameter, or, if omitted, to F</dev/conslog>.
+For example Solaris and IRIX system may prefer C<"stream"> instead of C<"unix">.
+
+=item *
+
+C<"pipe"> - connect to the named pipe indicated by the pathname provided as
+the optional second parameter, or, if omitted, to the value returned by
+the C<_PATH_LOG> macro (if your system defines it), or F</dev/log>
+(added in C<Sys::Syslog> 0.21).
+
+=item *
+
+C<"console"> - send messages directly to the console, as for the C<"cons">
+option of C<openlog()>.
+
+=back
+
+A reference to an array can also be passed as the first parameter.
+When this calling method is used, the array should contain a list of
+mechanisms which are attempted in order.
+
+The default is to try C<native>, C<tcp>, C<udp>, C<unix>, C<stream>, C<console>.
+Under systems with the Win32 API, C<eventlog> will be added as the first
+mechanism to try if C<Win32::EventLog> is available.
+
+Giving an invalid value for C<$sock_type> will C<croak>.
+
+B<Examples>
+
+Select the UDP socket mechanism:
+
+ setlogsock("udp");
+
+Select the native, UDP socket then UNIX domain socket mechanisms:
+
+ setlogsock(["native", "udp", "unix"]);
+
+=over
+
+=item B<Note>
+
+Now that the "native" mechanism is supported by C<Sys::Syslog> and selected
+by default, the use of the C<setlogsock()> function is discouraged because
+other mechanisms are less portable across operating systems. Authors of
+modules and programs that use this function, especially its cargo-cult form
+C<setlogsock("unix")>, are advised to remove any occurence of it unless they
+specifically want to use a given mechanism (like TCP or UDP to connect to
+a remote host).
+
+=back
+
+=item B<closelog()>
+
+Closes the log file and returns true on success.
+
+=back
+
+
+=head1 THE RULES OF SYS::SYSLOG
+
+I<The First Rule of Sys::Syslog is:>
+You do not call C<setlogsock>.
+
+I<The Second Rule of Sys::Syslog is:>
+You B<do not> call C<setlogsock>.
+
+I<The Third Rule of Sys::Syslog is:>
+The program crashes, C<die>s, calls C<closelog>, the log is over.
+
+I<The Fourth Rule of Sys::Syslog is:>
+One facility, one priority.
+
+I<The Fifth Rule of Sys::Syslog is:>
+One log at a time.
+
+I<The Sixth Rule of Sys::Syslog is:>
+No C<syslog> before C<openlog>.
+
+I<The Seventh Rule of Sys::Syslog is:>
+Logs will go on as long as they have to.
+
+I<The Eighth, and Final Rule of Sys::Syslog is:>
+If this is your first use of Sys::Syslog, you must read the doc.
+
+
+=head1 EXAMPLES
+
+An example:
+
+ openlog($program, 'cons,pid', 'user');
+ syslog('info', '%s', 'this is another test');
+ syslog('mail|warning', 'this is a better test: %d', time);
+ closelog();
+
+ syslog('debug', 'this is the last test');
+
+Another example:
+
+ openlog("$program $$", 'ndelay', 'user');
+ syslog('notice', 'fooprogram: this is really done');
+
+Example of use of C<%m>:
+
+ $! = 55;
+ syslog('info', 'problem was %m'); # %m == $! in syslog(3)
+
+Log to UDP port on C<$remotehost> instead of logging locally:
+
+ setlogsock('udp');
+ $Sys::Syslog::host = $remotehost;
+ openlog($program, 'ndelay', 'user');
+ syslog('info', 'something happened over here');

+
+Using Google Code Search, I search who on Earth was relying on $host being
+public. It found 5 hits:
+
+* First was inside Indigo Star Perl2exe documentation. Just an old version
+of Sys::Syslog.
+
+
+* One real hit was inside DalWeathDB, a weather related program. It simply
+does a
+
+ $Sys::Syslog::host = '127.0.0.1';
+
+- L<http://www.gallistel.net/nparker/weather/code/>
+
+
+* Two hits were in TPC, a fax server thingy. It does a
+
+ $Sys::Syslog::host = $TPC::LOGHOST;
+
+but also has this strange piece of code:
+
+ # work around perl5.003 bug
+ sub Sys::Syslog::hostname {}
+
+I don't know what bug the author referred to.
+
+- L<http://www.tpc.int/>
+- L<ftp://ftp.tpc.int/tpc/server/UNIX/>
+- L<ftp://ftp-usa.tpc.int/pub/tpc/server/UNIX/>
+
+
+* Last hit was in Filefix, which seems to be a FIDOnet mail program (!).
+This one does not use $host, but has the following piece of code:
+
+ sub Sys::Syslog::hostname
+ {
+ use Sys::Hostname;
+ return hostname;
+ }
+
+I guess this was a more elaborate form of the previous bit, maybe because
+of a bug in Sys::Syslog back then?
