Heya, when ever I have to replay old logs back into syslog-ng, I create a FIFO on the file system, and make syslog-ng listen to that pipe. you can then cat which ever old files you have into that pipe, and syslog-ng will handle them like they are new. just make sure that you have syslog-ng configured to use that pipe source() when sending it to your database. I can provide config example of what I just said if you want. Mike On Wed, 5 Nov 2008, Daniel L. Spells Sr. wrote:
Sirs,
Is there a way to import /var/log/messages, created by syslog-ng, into syslog-ng to be placed into a database?
