Syslog software for linux
by trafikpolisen from LinuxQuestions.org on (#540EQ)
Hi!
I've now googled for hours without any reasonable result. I'm looking for a simple program (gui) which listens on port 514 (syslog) and just displays the info. I don't (necessarily) need it to save or store the information, but a function to quick-filter the information would be desirable.
One would think that there would be fairly many open-source tools for this, since syslog is a fairly common standard, but everything I've come across so far doesn't work the way I want.
