L.S.
In the daemon(8) man page I noticed a discrepancy in the default syslog priority as explained with the command line options. The -S (upper case s) option states that the default priority is notice, and the -s (lower case s) says info. The latter is wrong, i.e. the correct default syslog priority is notice.
>From the daemon(8) man page:
-S Enable syslog output. This is implicitly applied if other syslog
parameters are provided. The default values are daemon, notice,
and daemon for facility, priority, and tag, respectively.
...
-s syslog_priority
These priorities are accepted: emerg, alert, crit, err, warning,
notice, info, and debug. The default is info.
Best regards,
