Hello! I'm writing a daemon, which chroots after initialization. It uses syslog(3) extensively. I have already figured out, that I need to openlog() with LOG_NDELAY, otherwise syslog() will not find the syslogd's socket. Is there a similar trick to make it use the local timezone instead of UTC? I'm surprised, the time is interpreted by the sender (rather than by the syslogd-recipient), but it is -- and I want it to be local, without copying /etc/localtime into the chroot tree. Thanks! -mi
