As far as I konw, rsyslog can support logging from a file,but if the log format is XML,is that ok?If not, what should I do?
well, in part that depends on the way XML is used in the file and what you want to do with it :-)
Is each line a separate log entry or do long entries span lines (or do you have multiple log entries per line)? If they span lines, how can you identify the start of a message?
Once you get the log entries read in individually, what are you wanting to do with them? forwarding the messages as-is is trivial, if you are wanting to parse the message and use parts of the message, things get a bit more complicated.
There are so many different ways to do things in XML, can you post a sample log entry?
