1. Once my linux box receive a log, how can I redirect this log message to someone's mail(someone@somewhere.com)?
You could use the program() destination to send messages to a custom script, which may send an email or anything you want to.
Can you show me how to use the program() in syslog-ng.conf? And how does the program() pass the message to a custom script? using system environment?
destination script { program("/usr/local/lib/loganal.sh"); }; the script receives its lines on its standard input, line by line. the script is executed once, and is restarted on SIGHUPs. -- Bazsi PGP info: KeyID 9AF8D0A9 Fingerprint CD27 CFB0 802C 0944 9CFD 804E C82C 8EB1 url: http://www.balabit.hu/pgpkey.txt
