Hi folks,

I have stumbled over a difficult question.

In a developed security environment where you run several network zones 
with the most important data/servers in the inner zones and "outside 
contact servers" like web proxies in the outer zone - in such an 
environment a central syslog server should be positioned somewhere in 
the inner zones, but the servers in the outer zones must not be allowed 
to push messages into the inner zones - these messages have to be 
fetched by the central servers from the outside zones' servers.

As far as I understand it, the syslogds implement a push model for 
remote logging, and I never heard of a syslogd pull model, but there 
clearly is the need for one.

Has anyone out there already thought about this and what did you do? Any 
ideas from those who didn't?

Thanks for any hint or help.

Dirk
