Marton, Thanks for the info. Adding it to the source did the trick and I am up and running. Thanks again. -Patrick ----------------------------------- ILLES, Marton wrote:

I am setting up syslog-ng to tail a database query log and have it sent to a central server for analysis / archiving. I have it partially working. I am able to send the UDP packets to the central server but I cannot get them to be sent to central server @ local6. Below is my source, destination, & log lines:

source s_general_db_log { file ("/var/lib/mysql/mysql/general_log.CSV" flags(no-parse) follow_freq(1) program_override("vchat3dev-db002_mysql_db_log:") ); };

destination d_central { udp( "10.0.4.162" port(514) ); };

log { source(s_general_db_log); destination(d_central); };

I have tried adding in a facility option to the destination but it does not work. Any help with what I am missing would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

You can add the facility() and priority() options to the source, otherwise it sets user/notice.
