Quick thought.  Look at filters on the receiving end.  Might be easier.

Subject: [syslog-ng] Individual Logs Files to each Forward to Different	server/port? 

Greetings!

Is is possible to configure a syslog-ng client to forward logs to a syslog-ng server based on file?

I am thinking of the following as an example:

destination named-LOGS {
udp(ip(192.168.1.100) port(555));
};
source named {
file("/var/log/named/bind.log" log_prefix("BIND-LOGS"));
};
log {
source(named);
destination(named-LOGS);
};


destination dhcpd-LOGS {
udp(ip(192.168.1.100) port(556));
};
source dhcpd {
file("/var/log/dhcpd/dhcp.log" log_prefix("DHCPD-LOGS"));
};
log {
source(dhcpd);
destination(dhcpd-LOGS);
};


In this example, I am sending each to the same destination IP address, although that is configurable, but each log file to a different port, and with a different log_prefix as well.


Does this OK,or is their a simpler way?


Many thanks,
