Hi folks,

	I've been running a very nice 4.3-STABLE system with
IPF as my firewall for some time now, without problems. Of
course I am sending my syslogs to a remote host, but
I want to keep an additional copy of the ipf logs locally.
My syslog.conf has just 2 lines:

*.*		@loghost
local0.*	/var/log/ipflog

I was guessing that the local0.* stuff would be sent to
both places, but that is not the case; I don't get
ipf logs on my loghost. What change do I need
to make in order to send local0.* to both places?
man 5 syslog.conf doesn't indicate that you can
take multiple actions for a given facility/priority.
<I know I can code up a proggie to pipe to which
will do what I want, but I figure there must be
an easier way.>

Thanks,
--Anindya
