Re: [syslog-ng] Logging to MySQL

How bout sending the output to a script which in turn sends it into the db? Or send it to a fifo and write a quick perl script to listen to that fifo and insert the logs into MySQL. I'm sure I recall something on this list some time ago regarding MySQL. John Eric Pierce (epierce@ritchie.acomp.usf.edu) wrote:

Has anyone attempted sending log messages to a MySQL databse instead of a flat file? Is this possible with syslog-ng or would I need to find some other syslogd replacment?
