Metalog will not start.. which I guess causes vcron not to start. This is kind of a problem.

The error when trying to start metalog is

Code:
 unkown facility : [emerg]
Bad configuration file - aborting
* Failed to start metalog


I am pretty sure I added this while following the security how-to because it is not listed as a facility on the metalog website. It does not appear to work.... If anyone could explain what this is for.. and if I need it that whole be great appreciated.

Part of metalog.conf
Code:

Emergencies :
     facility = "emerg"
     command = "/usr/local/sbin/pwdfail.sh"


Thanks a lot, Ian
