Hello,
I'm looking for a solution to INSERT data from a text file that is used
for logging into a MySQL table.

A hypothetical example...

I have a server (any server, could be a RADIUS, a DNS or a MTA) that
logs to a file in "/var/logs/log-file".  Is there a way to take the raw
data sent to the log file and "INSERT" it into a table?  Can this be
done on the "fly", meaning, the data isn't stored in the flat text file
at all, but rather the "service" sends the data to the log file and
instead of being written to the file, it's sent to a table.

Does this sound like a job for Perl/DBI/DBD?

Thanks for any in site or comments,
Jeff
