[syslog-ng]Syslog-ng reply script for centralized syslog data

[LEROY ISAAC]

I have a need to retrieve syslog data from various
remote nodes, and the smallest network link to the
remote nodes is 19K. The syslog traffic for the link
cannot exceed 9K. 

I plan to setup a configuration which generates new
log files every 10 minutes. These files are then
compressed, zipped, and transfered to a centralized
loghost. 

The files are then unzipped, uncompressed, and the
data is inserted into the syslog-ng data stream on the
central syslog-ng host. 

Is there a script or utility which will accomplish
this task? If not, then does any one have any
suggestions on products which may accomplish this same
task.
