Thanks a lot > for any info here... Quick answer: "man syslog.conf" Slightly longer answer: Quote from "man syslog.conf": Remote Machine This syslogd(8) provides full remote logging, i.e. is able to send messages to a remote host running syslogd(8) and to receive messages from remote hosts. The remote host won't forward the message again, it will just log them locally. To forward messages to another host, prepend the hostname with the at sign (``@''). Using this feature you're able to control all syslog mes- sages on one host, if all other machines will log remotely to that. This tears down administration needs. Works like a dream! *Add* it to your syslog.conf. You can then browse the log files on the RAM disk from the Weblet browser but the are safely stored away on the harddisk of your server for future reference! > C. Rosenberg > cli...@ho...
