How can I configure an SCS820, SCS1620, SCS3205 or SCS4805 to send syslog information to another host?

The SCSx05s and x20s use a standard Linux syslog daemon.

To send syslog logging to another host or hosts, edit the /etc/syslog.conf file from the SCS's bash prompt.

E.g. to send *.warning logs to a host named zaphod, add this line to /etc/syslog.conf:

*.warning                      @zaphod

If you prefer you can use the IP address of the host you're logging to:

*.warning                      @172.18.11.116

For more information, type 'man syslogd' at the bash prompt.
