Hi All,

Was just wondering what people recommend spec wise for
a loghost?  

Currently have a P2-350, 320mb (ish) of ram and 18gb to
store logs to.  There are about 80 to 90 machines logging
to this machine.  I think it will run out of disk space
before anything else.

syslog-ng tends to use 3% to 7% cpu with a sync(5).

Anyone have any interesting loghost information/experiences?

Cheers,
John
