SYSLOG2DLF.IN(1)					  LogReport's Lire Documentation					  SYSLOG2DLF.IN(1)

NAME

       syslog2dlf - convert syslog log files to DLF

SYNOPSIS

       syslog2dlf

DESCRIPTION

       This script uses the Lire::Syslog module to create a DLF representation of the syslog log files. It can process all the syslog log formats
       supported by that module.

EXAMPLES

       To process a log as produced by syslog:

	$ syslog2dlf < syslog.log

       syslog2dlf will be rarely used on its own, but is more likely called by lr_log2report:

	$ lr_log2report syslog < /var/log/syslog.log
