Hi

I have a syslogd running on one machine and Squid server on other machine. My problem is how to configure Squid server to use syslogd server on remote machine.

Thanks

man syslog.conf
look at how to forward the facility.priority to anothe machine. For instance, to forward all messages of the "warning" priority, you could do
*.warning: @theotherhost

Hi

What configuration change to be made in Squid.cong for redirecting access.log to remote syslogd server??

Shreekar
squid just uses syslogd's log facilities. you need to edit /etc/syslog.conf

Am I blind, or is this a threeway split?

Split between Gns, S0lar and ravigoru
