Ok..well I am thinking, if I have:

local4.*	/var/log/ldap.log

in syslog.conf and I issue:

kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog.pid`

Then this command should work:

logger -p local4.info Hello World

and log to /var/run/ldap.log.

When I issue:

logger -p mail.info Hello World

I get "Hello World" in my maillog.


Anyone know why it wouldn't work for local4.  This is OBSD 4.1.  Thanks 
all for your time!
