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
