# SyslogFacility

## Name

SyslogFacility -- sets syslog facility

`indexer.conf` `search.htm`

## Synopsis

SyslogFacility {facility}

## Description

SyslogFacility set the facility mnoGoSearch uses to display log messages.

The `facility` parameter uses the same facility names as in the `syslog.conf` or `rsyslog.conf` files. The exact list of supported facility names depends on platform. Typically these names are available:

`auth`
`authpriv`
`cron`
`daemon`
`ftp`
`kern`
`lpr`
`mail`
`news`
`syslog`
`user`
`uucp`
`local0`
`local1`
`local2`
`local3`
`local4`
`local5`
`local6`
`local7`

For the list of possible facility names see `syslog.conf(5)` or `rsyslog.conf(5)` man pages.

The default value is `local7`.

If SyslogFacility is set to `none`, then no logging is done to syslog.

> Note: `SyslogFacility none` does not suppress logging to `stderr`. Use `indexer -l` to suppress logging to `stderr`.

## Examples

    SyslogFacility local7
