hmm. would be nice if both sides could *start* the connection, too
(configurable).
if you want to transfer the logs from an agent which is located on a
system "outside" of a firewall, it would be nice to have the "inside"
system (the logserver) initiate the connection. we firewall guys get
nervous when some tool requires inbound tcp on the firewall...
just my 2 cents,
