I am trying to do the same thing. I got three datacenters and I am =
logging
all my routers and switches to syslog-ng servers in each location. I =
finally
got sqlsyslogd working on a test server but noticed that the format in =
which
my logs come into the database is wrong.=20

Can you tell me if you was able to accomplish your goal and if so can =
you
send me a sample config on how to tailor the logs before it is entered =
into
the database. Thanks in advance.

The reason I want it to log to a database is that I have over 100
routers and switches in different cities, I want a central Syslog
server, I want all of techs in each city to be able to view the Syslog
messages from a web browser anywhere.  The only way I know to do this =
is
have Syslog log to some database then have php/perl search from the =
web.

	I don't understand what the problems with using an external

preprocess messages before they go to the database, and feed this =

with a pipe/program destination.=20
