logDetail is a standard plug-in that is shipped with the source code. It allows the server owner to record nearly everything that happens on a server. logDetail is included in v2.0.6 and later releases.

Logged Items[edit]

logDetail will log the following events.

  • Join/Part with IP
  • All Chat, including Private Messages

Usage[edit]

When logDetail is loaded it will force the logged data to be output to the normal debug stream. Server owners that wish to save his to a file must use the redirect or pipe option on the host OS.

How to load the plugin[edit]

In the configuration file put:

  • -loadplugin /path/to/logDetail.so

While launching BZFS the part where you declare your configuration file should look like.

  • -conf /path/to/conf.conf >> Serverlog

Now the logs will be saved in the same directory as your configuration file.
