Hi, The way I went about finding a bit more information out was to write a small perl program that listened on port 514 and printed out anything that was forwarded to it. Basically, I believe the format is something like: <number>then the message here blah blah.... Looks like syslog uses the number to work out what the log message is. Below is a small list of a few: 38 auth.info 32 auth.none 34 auth.crit 33 auth.alert 39 auth.debug 37 auth.notice 35 auth.err 32 auth.emerg 36 auth.warn 32 auth.panic 35 auth.error 78 cron.info 72 cron.none So, write a perl script to send the information to the log server. Mail me if you want the full list of numbers. I probably have a perl script lying around some where too. Cheers, John

Actually, that's just the priority ored with the facility. Check syslog.h for a full list. -- Doug Nazar Dragon Computer Consultants Inc. Tel: (416) 708-1578 Fax: (416) 708-8081
