I have something set up to do that. Host 1: sacrifical-lamb, running OpenBSD 3.2. (not a fan of OpenBSD, obviously.) syslogd is listening on port 514. On your log server, verify that when you do a netstat -an you have the following: udp 0 0 *.514 *.* AFAIK, all you have to do is verify that syslogd is running with the -a flag to specify an allowed IP. (man syslogd for exact syntax). Host 2: perlpimp, running FreeBSD 5. In my syslog.conf, I have a line that looks like: *.* @sacrificial-lamb This makes perlpimp log *.* to sacrificial lamb. It's pretty easy to set up, providing you don't have any whackass firewalling or other weird stuff going on.
