Here is a snippet from I question I received today: 


Quote: 
	I am currently researching the following, but wanted to run it by
you to make sure you weren't already aware of a solution:
	Does syslog-ng support 'include' type statements in the config file
to make the config modular?   Here is the problem.   The new syslog-ng
server runs on a production    Solaris 8 box and portions of the
syslog-ng.conf file (not the device filters) are not the same as their linux
counterparts running on xxxx and yyyyy.  An easy way to maintain sync on the
phos and Solaris syslog-ng configs would be to simply sync the config file
as a whole.   For example, we might make changes on phos, then scp the file
to the production Solaris box.  If the config file were modular, we could
break it into 2 pieces/files, 1 specific to Solaris or Linux, and 1 for all
of the device filters.  ?

I know of no include function in syslog-ng.  Is there one?
