I'm having a problem with how the output is happening. Its filling up my 
messages file with repetitive information.

Should my /etc/rsyslog.d/forwardFile.conf look like this?

$ModLoad imfile
# File 1
$InputFileName /var/log/mysqld.log
$InputFileTag mysqld:
$InputFileStateFile stat-file1
$InputFileSeverity notice
$InputFileFacility local0
$InputRunFileMonitor

(no /etc/rsyslog.d/forwardRules.conf was set)
And to have this forwarded from a remote server to a central server. Should 
there be a /etc/rsyslog.d/forwardRule.conf?

I'm not quite sure how to put the forwarding rule in rsyslog.conf
If $programname == 'mysqld' then @forward.to.this.ip:514

I'm kinda confused about this....I don't know if mysqld.log (centos box) falls 
under something that you have to monitor...or if I can just forward the file 
that is created by the program to another server.



On my central syslog server the rsyslog.conf I want to use a template to 
receive this data and put it in a file so
$template DYNmysqld,"/var/log/hosts/%HOSTNAME%/mysqld.log"

If \
        $source != 'myhostname'\
        And \
        $programname == 'mysqld' \
Then ?DYNmysqld

Should this be working?
