send the accesslog to syslog

Default: disabled

accesslog.filename
name of the file where the accesslog should be written to if syslog

if the name starts with a '|' the rest of the name is taken
  as the name of a process which will be spawn and will get the

$HTTP["host"] == "mail.example.org" {
      accesslog.filename = "|/usr/bin/cronolog" 
    }

e.g.: ::

accesslog.format = "%h l %u %t \"%r\" %b %>s \"{User-Agent}i\" \"%{Referer}i\""

Default: CLF compatible output

Response Header
---------------

The accesslog module provides a special way to log content from the
application in a accesslog file. It can be used to log the session id into a
logfile.

If you want to log it into the accesslog just specify the field-name within
a %{...}o like ::

accesslog.format = "%h l %u %t \"%r\" %b %>s \"{User-Agent}i\" \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{X-LIGHTTPD-SID}o\""

The prefix ``X-LIGHTTPD-`` is special as every response header starting with
this prefix is assumed to be special for lighttpd and won't be sent out
to the client.

An example the use this functionality is provided below: ::

<?php

session_start();

header("X-LIGHTTPD-SID: ".session_id());

?>
