Hi
Thanks for the help. I took a quick scan through the logging module and I can't see any mention of writing to a remote file ? Could you please direct me to the part you mentioned ?. I went through some of the examples and the one related to remote logging is via the console (tcp port). I cannot see any information given regarding remote logging.
Just to give some more info on what I am doing. I have a large script that is running and outputting messages to a logfile I am storing. I want these messages to be output to a remote file instead which can be viewed on a browser to provide realtime data as the script processes.
So this logfile is not handled by syslog.
This is being done on a Linux machine.
Thanks for the help

If the remote machine is a file server, you can use the logging module
to write to a file on the remote machine
Also the logging module can be used to easily log to a syslog handler.
If this remote file is a "normal" log file managed by a syslog process
then you should find the python part pretty easy. The syslog process
still needs to be configured to accept your logging messages, but that
should not be too difficult.
Scanning the logging module docs, it looks like you can use it to write
your own process to run on the remote machine to handle "logging
messages". Then use the logging module on the local machine to send
"logging messages" to the remote machine.
