OK, I have syslog'ging to a remote host done. I am logging from
morphine to marijuana. On morphine I am saying, in /etc/syslog.conf
mail.info @marijuana.yoafrica.com
On marijuana, in /etc/rc.conf, I have put
syslogd_flags="-a morphine:* -b marijuana"
which according to me accepts from morphine and binds on marijuana.
All is working to here, everything that morphine syslogs to mail.info I
can on marijuana get that out with mail.info. The problem is it mixes
it up with marijuana's mail.info, and when I add a whole bunch of other
servers/switches/routers etc, its going to get VERY hairy.
How can I tell marijuana to log everything from morpine in
/var/log/morpine. I have tried
+morphine
mail.info /var/log/morphine/maillog
But that does absolutely nothing. I am having trouble understanding the
syslog.conf man page.
TIA
-John
