Have you tried just writing a program in script or something to read the logfile for changes, make sure each log is in the right format and then send it over the network to syslog-ng the way a normal network logger would? Although there is an easier way as well. Try installing syslog-ng on that machine, define a source as the file and then define the destination as the remote logserver. That should do it. -h Hari Sekhon Steven Meacham wrote:
Need help with having Syslog-ng import a log file into Syslog-ng. I have a proxy server that will not syslog but will log to a file than can ftp of the server. I am wondering how I can take the ftped file and send it to the Syslog-ng so It can be sysloged to our database server for review? Any help would be great? Thanks.
