Hello,

I am new to busybox syslog, can someone help me to configure? My version of=
 busybox is 1.22.1.

I need to forward some log messages (local7 only) to a remote server at 192=
.168.254.60. Here is my syslog.conf on the host:

# cat /etc/syslog.conf
# All logging goes to the main log too, regardless of other routing
*.* /var/log/messages

local7.* @192.168.254.60
local7.* /var/log/userlog

Here is how I start syslogd:

# syslogd -m 0 -s 2048 -b 5 -D -L

# klogd

However, there is no local7 message sent to remote, but I can see them in l=
ocal /var/log/userlog. But if I use -R 192.168.254.60 to start syslogd, the=
n remote server receives all types of log messages, not just local7.

Can someone help me to figure out how to configure to be able to forward lo=
cal7 logs to remote and save to local as well?

Tom
