You should look on http://www.campin.net/syslog-ng/faq.html there are some sites that list how to format syslog-ng to sql statements. michael -----Original Message----- From: thelittleprince@asteroid-b612.org Sent: Monday, June 24, 2002 2:40 PM To: <syslog-ng@lists.balabit.hu> Subject: [syslog-ng]program() with template()..how or workaround? i need to use template with program in order to send a specific format to a modified sqlsyslogd. I'm running the latest devel of syslog ng. can this be done? if not, is there some sort of workaround i can use with pipe to get the formatted data into sqlsyslogd? or maybe do something like.. program("/usr/local/bin/sqlsyslogd < echo $HOST $FACILITY"); i know that syntax wont work, but you get the gist. :) Thanx!
