syslog to multiple servers

is there any way i can syslog one same log to 2 syslog servers?

i tried out with the following settings:

Code:

local7.=info                            /home/mylog/log1
local7.=info                            @server1.com

local6.=info                            /home/mylog/log1
local6.=info                            @server2.com

but log is only syslog-ed to server1 and not server2

where did i make the mistake?

i tried with

Code:

local7.=info                            /home/mylog/log1
local7.=info                            @server1.com,server2.com

or

Code:

local7.=info                            /home/mylog/log1
local7.=info                            @server1.com
local7.=info                            @server2.com

too but failed..

i'd suggest switching to syslog-ng, you can have as many destinations of as many types as you want (file, remote system, pipe etc...)
