Hi all,<br>
<br>
I have completely replaced syslogd with syslog-ng on my main system and
it is great!&nbsp; Thank you much for all the work that has gone into
it.&nbsp; I am a very grateful user and wanted to give praise where due!<br>
<br>
However, I do have another system with lesser needs that I am unsure
how to correctly configure.&nbsp; I'm hoping someone here may be able
to provide me with some insight.<br>
<br>
What I'm wanting to do is set up syslog-ng to monitor one of the files
that syslogd is writing.&nbsp; Specifically, I have a custom
application that is writing to /var/log/messages and I'd like syslog-ng
to monitor that file for events generated by the application then have
them re-wrote to a different log file.<br>
<br>
I have read the reference manual, and tried messing around with the
file() driver, but don't seem to be getting anywhere.&nbsp;
Additionally, I searched the last six months of the mailing list
archive but saw no related threads.<br>
<br>
Any helps is greatly appreciated.<br>
<br>
Thanks again!<br>
<br>
