Hello all,


I have been looking at syslogd for remote logging
of apache access.log files. 

We have a small farm of web servers, and want to
log all accesses to one big file on a centralized
logging box ( we want to analyze one big log
file that stands for "the site" ).

There is the obvious disadvantage of syslog using
UDP, since we won't know if we lose packets..
This will likely not be a problem.

However, syslogd will substitute "last message 
repeated XX times" if the occurences happen
more than a couple times a second. 

Is there any way to turn this off?

Also, is anyone actually doing this?
I have been considering using syslogd just
for apache error logs, and using either NFS
or rsync for access logs, any suggestions?



Thank you,
Rob Helmer
