OK, I have syslog'ging to a remote host done. I am logging from morphine to marijuana. On morphine I am saying, in /etc/syslog.conf mail.info @marijuana.yoafrica.com On marijuana, in /etc/rc.conf, I have put syslogd_flags="-a morphine:* -b marijuana" which according to me accepts from morphine and binds on marijuana. All is working to here, everything that morphine syslogs to mail.info I can on marijuana get that out with mail.info. The problem is it mixes it up with marijuana's mail.info, and when I add a whole bunch of other servers/switches/routers etc, its going to get VERY hairy. How can I tell marijuana to log everything from morpine in /var/log/morpine. I have tried +morphine mail.info /var/log/morphine/maillog But that does absolutely nothing. I am having trouble understanding the syslog.conf man page.
