>From the syslogd.conf man page:


              *.*                          @finlandia

       This rule would redirect all messages  to  a  remote  host
       called  finlandia.  This is useful especially in a cluster
       of machines where all syslog messages will  be  stored  on
       only one machine.

I haven't had a chance to experiment yet, but will glibc read this, and send
it on to another host? or can it only hand it off to a local syslod, where the
smarts exist to hand it off to another host?
