    IMPLOGD(8)	    UNIX Programmer's Manual	       IMPLOGD(8)

    NAME
         implogd - IMP logger process

    SYNOPSIS
         /usr/sbin/implogd [ -d ]

    DESCRIPTION
         Implogd is program which logs error messages from the IMP,
         placing them in the file /usr/adm/implog.

         Entries in the file are variable length.  Each log entry has
         a fixed length header of the form:

         struct sockstamp {
    	  short     sin_family;
    	  u_short   sin_port;
    	  struct    in_addr sin_addr;
    	  time_t    sin_time;
    	  int  sin_len;
         };

         followed, possibly, by the message received from the IMP.
         Each time the logging process is started up it places a time
         stamp entry in the file (a header with sin_len field set to
         0).

         The logging process will catch only those message from the
         IMP which are not processed by a protocol module, e.g. IP.
         This implies the log should contain only status information
         such as ``IMP going down'' messages, ``host down'' and other
         error messages, and, perhaps, stray NCP messages.
