Wow, that is ironic, a windows box monitoring a unix domain who would have thunk it. This will probably somewhat depend on how the Perl script is written, presumably if you are writing to adm/messages and since it is over the network then the script is logging via syslog? In which case the syslog configuration should be able to provide the mechanism for catching the messages and routing them to a different log. But the above seems to come from telnetd? Which I don't fully understand... Have you looked into re-configuring syslog? http://danconia.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
