Thanks, James. I did read that, but wasn't sure how to send the messages to both. Basically, this is the file:
*.err;kern.debug;daemon.notice /var/adm/messages I'm wondering how I can send all those logs to both the /var/adm/messages AND another base server. Is it possible to do both? Thanks for your help.

As explained in the syslog.conf(4) man page: A configuration entry is composed of two TAB-separated fields: selector action [...] The action field indicates where to forward the message. Values for this field can have one of four forms: [...] o The name of a remote host, prefixed with an @, as with: @server, which indicates that messages speci- fied by the selector are to be forwarded to the syslogd on the named host. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
