[syslog-ng]logger-ng

Many of us are familiar with "logger" that sends syslog messages... I use it all the time when writing scripts. What about a "logger-ng" that has more features? Such as being able to send syslog messages via TCP/UDP to specified port numbers instead of just to the localhost. For example: logger-ng -d 10.10.10.10:5514 [-t|-u] -p local3.warn This is a message I want to send to the syslog daemon listening on port 5514 at the IP address 10.10.10.10 In addition to specifying UDP/TCP and a destination IP address, some other features I can think of are: tailing a log file listening on a named pipe taking standard input to send logs -Ben.
