Syslog in Solaris 11.1
Hi,

I have a solaris 11.1 server with many network interfaces (real and virtual), and one is connected to another server.

i need that syslog send the info through one specific interface, i know that in the syslog.conf file can write:

*.* @xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (remote server IP)

but donīt work

how I can do?

I can not test on the server, I donīt have access, I can only do it that way, i know that the 2 servers have comunication, and the interface linking servers isnīt the default interface


thanks

logger::syslog

Logger::Syslog(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				       Logger::Syslog(3pm)

NAME

       Logger::Syslog -- an intuitive wrapper over Syslog for Perl

DESCRIPTION

       You want to deal with syslog, but you don't want to bother with Sys::Syslog, that module is for you.

       Logger::Syslog takes care of everything regarding the Syslog communication, all you have to do is to use the function you need to send a
       message to syslog.

       Logger::Syslog provides one function per Syslog message level: debug, info, warning, error, notice, critic, alert.

NOTES

       Logger::Syslog is compliant with mod_perl, all you have to do when using it in such an environement is to call logger_init() at the
       beginning of your CGI, that will garantee that everything will run smoothly (otherwise, issues with the syslog socket can happen in
       mod_perl env).

SYNOPSIS

	   use Logger::Syslog;

	   info("Starting at ".localtime());
	   ...
	   if ($error) {
	       error("An error occured!");
	       exit 1;
	   }
	   ...
	   notice("There something to notify");

FUNCTIONS

   logger_init
       Call this to explicitly open a Syslog socket. You can optionaly specify a Syslog facility.

       That function is called when you use the module, if you're not in a mod_perl environement.

       Examples:

	   # open a syslog socket with default facility (user)
	   logger_init();

	   # open a syslog socket on the 'local' facility
	   logger_init('local');

   logger_close
       Call this to close the Syslog socket.

       That function is called automatically when the calling program exits.

   logger_prefix
       That function lets you set a string that will be prefixed to every messages sent to syslog.

       Example:

	   logger_prefix("my program");
	   info("starting");
	   ...
	   info("stopping");

   logger_set_default_facility(facility)
       You can choose which facility to use, the default one is "user".  Use that function if you want to switch smoothly from a facility to
       another.

       That function will close the existing socket and will open a new one with the appropriate facility.

       Example:

	   logger_set_default_facility("cron");

LOGGING

       Logger::Syslog provides one function per Syslog level to let you send messages.	If you want to send a debug message, just use debug(), for
       a warning, use warning() and so on...

       All those function have the same signature : thay take a string as their only argument, which is the message to send to syslog.

       Examples:

	   debug("my program starts at ".localtime());
	   ...
	   warning("some strange stuff occured");
	   ...
	   error("should not go there !");
	   ...
	   notice("Here is my notice");
