Quick thought. Look at filters on the receiving end. Might be easier.

Greetings! Is is possible to configure a syslog-ng client to forward logs to a syslog-ng server based on file? I am thinking of the following as an example: destination named-LOGS { udp(ip(192.168.1.100) port(555)); }; source named { file("/var/log/named/bind.log" log_prefix("BIND-LOGS")); }; log { source(named); destination(named-LOGS); }; destination dhcpd-LOGS { udp(ip(192.168.1.100) port(556)); }; source dhcpd { file("/var/log/dhcpd/dhcp.log" log_prefix("DHCPD-LOGS")); }; log { source(dhcpd); destination(dhcpd-LOGS); }; In this example, I am sending each to the same destination IP address, although that is configurable, but each log file to a different port, and with a different log_prefix as well. Does this OK,or is their a simpler way? Many thanks, .vp Vadim Anatoly Pushkin -- The Ukranian Stallion --
