Would it be possible to find: collector - the daemon, simply listens on the configured port and writes what it receives to a file. maintenance script - ran from the system crontab it simply looks at the size of the syslog file, or how long its been building, and ages it giving the daemon a new one to bang at. web interface - allows an idiot to configure, via a pretty interface, awk/grep/rrdtool scripts based on the type of message, the host, the severity, anything else, all of those, none of those, etc.. Maybe one that places a select few of the messages into a database somewhere for further processing - or simply breaks up the one big file into a bunch of little files based on one of those things mentioned previously... That would be cool as hell! :) On 5/2/06, Marcus J. Ranum <mjr () ranum com> wrote:

No, it should have not sucked to begin with. The original version was a sloppy hack, even its author says so.
