--- Begin Message ---Package: syslog-ng Version: 1.5.4-1 Severity: wishlist I'd like to be able to include a log source within another log source, e.g.: source local { internal(); unix-stream("/dev/log"); }; source all { source("local"); udp(ip(1.2.3.4) port(514)); }; -- System Information Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux cornerstone 2.4.1-ac18 #1 Mon Feb 19 12:38:53 PST 2001 i686 Versions of packages syslog-ng depends on: ii libc6 2.2.1-3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii logrotate 3.2-11 Log rotation utility

--- Begin Message ---This has been deemed wontfix by upstream, and since one can include multiple source{} blocks in a log{} block, there's no point in allowing sources to be included in each other. Just use something like: source local { internal(); unix-stream("/dev/log"); }; source net { udp(ip(1.2.3.4) port(514)); }; log { source(local); source(net); }; A single source can be included in multiple log blocks, so.. I don't see how and what source foo { source(bar); ... } would do anything that log{} can't. -- |8]
