Re: [syslog-ng] Redhat init script?

21 Oct 1999

      Thanks, It worked perfectly.

Can this script be added to a contrib dir in the syslog-ng.tar.gz archive?

Regards,
David Robinson

Has anyone made up a standard syslog-ng start/stop init script for Redhat 6?
I noticed there was a debian one..
I'm currently just starting syslog-ng from the rc.local script.
If not I'll create one but I don't want to do it if someone has already done it.
Hi,
here is one. It works with Redhat 6.0/6.1
