    Re: Rsyslog forward log to other syslog server

    Hi slickymaster,

    i still cannot fwd the syslog,
    What i try to do, i setup 2 rsyslog server, rsyslog1 and rsyslog2.
    My firewall logs forward to rsyslog1 using syslog udp514, i manage to receive the log ar rsyslog1.
    At rsyslog1, i do some log correlation. the result is output to file "output.txt".
    I want to forward the result to the rsyslog2.

    Here my rsyslog.conf file.

    Code:
    root@ubuntu:/etc# more rsyslog.conf
    
    $ModLoad imuxsock # provides support for local system logging
    $WorkDirectory /home/rsyslog/sec-2.7.2/output.txt
    $ModLoad imklog   # provides kernel logging support (previously done by rklogd)
    #$ModLoad immark  # provides --MARK-- message capability
    
    # provides UDP syslog reception
    $ModLoad imudp
    $UDPServerRun 514
    
    # provides TCP syslog reception
    #$ModLoad imtcp
    #$InputTCPServerRun 514
