Hi - I use this python script to capture a socket (ie the log file)
and then send it to syslog, i use this for all the systems that do not
really support syslogging (apache etc)
basic useage
/usr/bin/nohup /programs/common/capture -s
/usr/local/apache2/logs/httpd-access.log -l httpd -d 10.228.0.6:514 -p
httpd & > /dev/null
i typically run this at startup in rc.local
hope this helps :

Hi,
I'm searching for a possibility to have the rawlog feature in lua,
which would be much easier for processing. Currently Dovecot, when
activating rawlog for a user, writes everything to disk (which
creates I/O), and I have to somehow read it from there. That's a bit
complicated, because I have to get notified via inotify or similar
when there are new files created, and then I have to start a "tail"
or "epoll" mechanism on the files to get the contents in more or less
real time (IMAP sessions can be multiple hours or days).
It would be much easier to hook to the "raw request and response
events" inside Dovecot and have the rawlog-data in a lua script,
where I can prepare it and send it to another maschine for
monitoring/collection/analysis/statistics or similar, for example via
HTTP.
Having the rawlog data available in lua would make things a lot easier.
Is there any possibility at the moment to create a lua script and
"hook" to those "request and response events"? If not, would it be
possible to add that feature in the future?
Kind regards
Michael
