Write file over network
Hello Forum,
I have an embedded Busybox system with ash shell. On this system is a service with logging output. I want to have this logfile on another computer. This service creates the log file, but I can specify the filename via parameter. The memory is very fast filled up. What could be the easiest way to transfer this file on the fly to another linux machine? I cant install much additional software. I want to run the service for hours, without starting&stopping the service when the space is used.
I thought something like starting the service and writing the log into the file, but transferring the data with netcat to another machine. Where a second netcat instance writes it to hd. If I specify - as filename (for writing the log to stdout), the service only creates a file called --01.log in the current directory. I only need a hint that directs me into the correct direction.
Thanks a lot
Peter

xinetd.log
XINETD.LOG(5) File Formats Manual XINETD.LOG(5)
NAME
xinetd.log - xinetd service log format
DESCRIPTION
A service configuration may specify various degrees of logging when attempts are made to access the service. When logging for a service is
enabled, xinetd will generate one-line log entries which have the following format (all entries have a timestamp as a prefix):
entry: service-id data
The data depends on the entry. Possible entry types include:
START generated when a server is started
EXIT generated when a server exits
FAIL generated when it is not possible to start a server
DATA generated when an attempt to start a server fails and the service supports the RECORD log option.
USERID generated if the USERID log option is used.
NOID generated if the USERID log option is used, and the IDONLY service flag is used, and the remote end does not identify
who is trying to access the service.
In the following, the information enclosed in brackets appears if the appropriate log option is used.
A START entry has the format:
START: service-id [pid=%d] [from=%d.%d.%d.%d]
An EXIT entry has the format:
EXIT: service-id [type=%d] [pid=%d] [duration=%d(sec)]
type can be either status or signal. The number is either the exit status or the signal that caused process termination.
A FAIL entry has the format:
FAIL: service-id reason [from=%d.%d.%d.%d]
Possible reasons are:
fork a certain number of consecutive fork attempts failed (this number is a configurable parameter)
time the time check failed
address the address check failed
service_limit the allowed number of server instances for this service would be exceeded
process_limit a limit on the number of forked processes was specified and it would be exceeded
A DATA entry has the format:
DATA: service-id data
The data logged depends on the service.
login remote_user=%s local_user=%s tty=%s
exec remote_user=%s verify=status command=%s
Possible status values:
ok the password was correct
failed the password was incorrect
baduser no such user
shell remote_user=%s local_user=%s command=%s
finger received string or EMPTY-LINE
A USERID entry has the format:
USERID: service-id text
The text is the response of the identification daemon at the remote end excluding the port numbers (which are included in the response).
A NOID entry has the format:
NOID: service-id IP-address reason
