Hello again, I'd just like to give a gently nudge, hoping that somebody can comment. Is it out of scope, or plain silly, or just boring :) Cheers, Dejan On Wed, May 04, 2011 at 06:43:41PM +0200, Dejan Muhamedagic wrote:
Hi,
We have a kind of machinery which collects syslog logs from several hosts. Currently it works by sending a message using logger(1) to the given facility.severity and then looking up the message in log files in /var/log and a few other directories (using grep).
I'm looking for a more robust and faster way to discover the destination. Would that be possible with syslog-ng? And which is the optimal way to achieve that? An extra syslog-ng option? An extra binary? Or perhaps using logger(1)?
Cheers,
