I for one (syslog-ng) don't plan to add native support to SSH, although SSH can be integrated into syslog-ng by using the program destination, something like this: program("ssh -i /etc/syslog-ng/ssh.key [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/bin/logger -f"); However I don't see this as a very good solution. On the other hand I'm planning on adding TLS natively (instead of using stunnel style hacks). -- Bazsi _______________________________________________ Syslog mailing list Syslog@lists.ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/syslog
