If I simply want to have the syslogd daemons on my Solaris boxes send
their logs to a remote loghost running syslog-ng, I don't need syslog-ng
on the solaris boxes correct?
So on my solaris box, /etc/syslog.conf would contain an entry like this:
auth.info @loghost
Loghost of course would be defined in /etc/hosts and contain the IP
address of the Linux system running syslog-ng.
Will this config work? Some of the documentation confused me implying
that syslog-ng is also needed on the client side. I will be using a
standard TCP listener with syslog-ng on the loghost machine, likely
using port 514.
Thanks,
