This is all embedded in the current syntax. For logging remote under a different service, you can use @1.2.3.4:service [1]; for binding to a different service, you can use 'syslogd -b 1.2.3.4:service'. No breakage is introduced as the default service remains 'syslog'. The patch is at http://rink.nu/tmp/syslogd.diff, which I'd like to commit. Does anyone have questions or comments? [1] OpenBSD also has this functionality --=20 Rink P.W. Springer - http://rink.nu "Richter: Tribute? You steal men's souls, and make them your slaves!
