sco remote logging problem
Hello,

I am trying to write log from sco box to a remote host.

We already have that setting working for linux server using syslog.

With this setting(on LINUX)

Code:
*.*   @remote-host

for sco I have this

Code:
*.debug                                         /usr/adm/syslog        
 *.*                                            @remote-host

But nothing reaches to remote-host.
I have used telnet

Code:
telnet remote-host 514

It makes connection.

I normally kill syslogd and then reissue syslogd to restart syslog.

If I try

Code:
syslogd -d

I get

Code:
# syslogd -d 
off & running....
init
attempting to open source named pipe (fn = 0x804ba30)
success - fd = 3

Any ideas?

A quick guess from these lines:
Code:
cfline( *.*                                             @remote-host)
syslogd: unknown facility name " *"
logmsg: pri 53, flags 4, from scoX, msg syslogd: unknown facility name " *"

Lose the space at the start of the second line.

Yeah some thing changed, I think unix don't write log messages as often. I will wait till I get some messages printed to remote-host.
