For example, the problem with this solution (filtering the output to be syslog compatible) is that it exposes a limitation in the socklog/svlogd combination -- the "meta information" about a log message (the facility and priority) is only available inline, so if you want to filter log messages by facility, you can't strip this information out of the text. Bleah. I'm not sure I see a good solution here, either. Something like syslog-ng could obviously be used as a syslog-aware front-end to drive multiple svlogd pipes -- but then syslog-ng implements its own log rotation mechanism. -- Lars -- Lars Kellogg-Stedman <[email protected]>
