Logging for System Admin Scriptsby Posthumous (Scribe) |

Posthumous has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Fellow monks:
I use Perl for various system admin tasks primarily on Win32 machines with Activestate Perl 5.8. Until now, I have been logging my scripts' output with the basic open-file/write/close-file process. I'd like to begin making my logging easier, more efficient, and consistent. I've been looking for a module that may help me do this. After days of searching, reading, and evaluating, I'm no closer to a choice or even a decision whether a logging module is a good idea. I'd like to get your opinions on a good logging module for system admin scripts, if such an animal exists.
If possible, I'd like to stick with modules available through Activestate's ppm repository. Of course, that is not absolutely necessary.
