Issue ID: 9403
           Summary: add option to completely disable syslog logging
           Product: OpenLDAP
           Version: 2.4.45
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: ---
         Component: slapd
          Assignee: bugs@openldap.org
          Reporter: cvuillemez@yahoo.fr
  Target Milestone: ---
For auditing purpose, I need to enable "stats" loglevel.
So on heavy load, slapd send lots of events to local syslog socket /dev/log,
when compiled with LDAP_SYSLOG (on Debian / Ubuntu).
It worked fine on old systems with a simple syslog service.
But when upgrading on system with journald+syslog, CPU "overhead" becomes
totally crazy.
It would be great to have an option at run time to completely disable syslog
logging, or/and use a cutom socket, e.g. /run/systemd/journal/syslog to bypass
journald service.
