(RADIATOR) Authlog Stripping

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Lanny, Hello Andrew -

Yes you could do this - I have tested named pipes recently and you  
can certainly use them for logging. You would just need a simple perl  
script to do whatever with the log messages before writing them. Just  
keep in mind that Radiator opens, writes and closes the log device  
for each message and you should hence be careful to avoid performance  
bottlenecks.

regards

Hugh
