:Name: IMSolarisLogSocketName
:Scope: module
:Type: string (path)
:Default: /dev/log
:Required?: no
:Introduced: Not documented

Description
-----------
This directive specifies the path to the Solaris log socket (stream) for reading local application and kernel messages. If omitted, it defaults to ``/dev/log``.
Since directive names are case-insensitive, the canonical form ``$IMSolarisLogSocketName`` is recommended for readability.
