Oh, so syslog-ng probally isn't the right tool for the job?
I'm not sure, I'm not familiar with syslog-ng... or what all the job entails.
I can use these tools to monitor my /var/log/kern ?
You can use OSSEC to monitor any or all logs. It takes a few options to let it know the type of logfile (apache, syslog, nmap, etc.) and its location but that's about it.
Also, thanks for all the responses!
Sure, though we should probably stop top-posting afore someone gets cranky=}
Have fun!
