in reply to Sys::Syslog to my file

but it isn't working
How?
Is there exists not so ugly way?
I would think the documented way would be the not so ugly way. If that's not working for you, and you've got the latest version of the module, then contact the maintainer and file a bug report (or just fix it).

I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).
