Dear friends<br> I have a small problem with my syslog-ng server, I use a configuration to filter mail from log file and forwerd it to perl script to send it, the configuration like the following:<br>=====================================================<br>source sme {file (/var/log/syslog-ng/servers/172.31.250.68/local7.log); };<br><br>destination maillog { program ("/usr/local/bin/syslog-mail-perl" );<br> };<br>log {source(sme); destination(maillog); };<br>=====================================================<br><br>And the perl script like the following:<br>+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++=<br>#!/usr/bin/perl -n<br># thanks to Brian Dowling for an example with security in mind.<br><br>$TO = 'reaky@domain.com';<br>$FROM = $TO;<br><br>s/^//;<br><br>open(MAIL, "|/usr/sbin/sendmail -t");<br><br>print MAIL "EOT";<br>To: $TO<br>From: $FROM<br>Subject: SME Log Alert: $_<br><br>$_<br><br>EOT<br><br>close(MAIL);<br>+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++<br><br>It worked very fine when I send to root user in the machine, But when I
tried to send to outside I found that I must restart syslog every time
to send the mails to sendmail, In another word it buffer the emails
tell I restart syslog-ng then It forwerd it to send mail and can see it
in the mail log.<br>Do you have any idea for that ?<br>Thanks<br><br /><hr />Windows Live™: Keep your life in sync. <a href='http://windowslive.com/explore?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_t1_allup_explore_012009' target='_new'>Check it out!</a></body>
