question about logging levels, using syslog facility.

[koch at inbox.lv]

I will use only &radiusd::radlog(L_INFO, ""); with text "Error: ", "Info: ", "Debug: " in the text... And with configurable variable debug_level in the program. if (debug_level == 3) - print everything, if == 2, err and info, if ==1, then only err.  

I just wonder, what is the point of all of this
&radiusd::radlog(L_DBG, "");
&radiusd::radlog(L_AUTH, "");
&radiusd::radlog(L_INFO, "");
&radiusd::radlog(L_ERR, "");
&radiusd::radlog(L_PROXY, "");
&radiusd::radlog(L_ACCT, "");

?

It doesn't work, when log configured as syslog. If destination configured as "files", then log looks like:

Tue Jan 12 17:42:22 2016 : rlm_perl: authenticate - L_DBG 
Tue Jan 12 17:42:22 2016 : Auth: rlm_perl: authenticate - L_AUTH
Tue Jan 12 17:42:22 2016 : Info: rlm_perl: authenticate - L_INFO
Tue Jan 12 17:42:22 2016 : Error: rlm_perl: authenticate - L_ERR
Tue Jan 12 17:42:22 2016 : Warning: rlm_perl: authenticate - L_PROXY (???)
Tue Jan 12 17:42:22 2016 : Proxy: rlm_perl: authenticate - L_ACCT (???)

It seems, that something politically incorrect here...
