It has a unique ability in that it can use TCP instead of UDP - allowing it to be tunneled via ssh to an external server where it can then receive log messages from a syslog-ng located on that side. This allows you to receive messages through a firewall that blocks UDP syslog traffic (as it ought to). -- David Douthitt UNIX Systems Administrator HP-UX, Unixware, Linux [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user
