`-x' OPTS
=========

   Specifies the type and verbosity of log messages.  "opts" is a comma
separated list selected from the following options:

`fatal'
     Fatal errors

`error'
     Non-fatal errors

`user'
     Non-fatal user errors

`warn'
     Recoverable errors

`warning'
     Alias for `warn'

`info'
     Information messages

`map'
     Mount map usage

`stats'
     Additional statistics

`all'
     All of the above

   Initially a set of default logging flags is enabled.  This is as if
`-x all,nomap,nostats' had been selected.  The command line is parsed
and logging is controlled by the `-x' option.  The very first set of
logging flags is saved and can not be subsequently disabled using Amq.
This default set of options is useful for general production use.

   The `info' messages include details of what is mounted and unmounted
and when filesystems have timed out.  If you want to have the default
set of messages without the `info' messages then you simply need `-x
noinfo'.  The messages given by `user' relate to errors in the mount
maps, so these are useful when new maps are installed.  The following
table lists the syslog priorities used for each of the message types.

`fatal'
     `LOG_CRIT'

`error'
     `LOG_ERR'

`user'
     `LOG_WARNING'

`warning'
     `LOG_WARNING'

`info'
     `LOG_INFO'

`debug'
     `LOG_DEBUG'

`map'
     `LOG_DEBUG'

`stats'
     `LOG_INFO'

   The options can be prefixed by the string `no' to indicate that this
option should be turned off.  For example, to obtain all but `info'
messages the option `-x all,noinfo' would be used.

   If Amd was built with debugging enabled the `debug' option is
automatically enabled regardless of the command line options.
