You could also use 'logsurfer'. It's not trivial to set up but it is very flexable. -Ben On Wednesday 06 August 2003 04:45 pm, Steffen Dettmer wrote:

Then it will be locally logged, but I want it to be logged remotely:

I don't think that syslog is capable doing that! You cannot sort by hostname. Personally, I use "logmail" (see http://sws.dett.de/) to get log file excerpts by mail (who should read all that stuff every day!); here you can filter who receives what (which, at this time, was one of the design criterias for logmail :-)). Maybe syslog-ng or other replacements are worth a look also. Finally, you can write to FIFOs with syslog, have a daemon (perl) reading the FIFOs and writing files. Maybe you even can specify PIPE commands in syslogd.conf, I'm unsure and to lazy to check the man page :-)
