> It has support for both syslog-ng 'senders' and 'receivers', and the

> To configure/start a syslog-ng sender, do this:
> $VDT_LOCATION/vdt/setup/configure_syslog_ng_sender --local-collector
> myloghost.foo.gov
> $VDT_LOCATION/vdt/setup/configure_syslog_ng_sender --add-source "/
> tmp/testfile"
> $VDT_LOCATION/vdt/setup/configure_syslog_ng_sender --server y
> vdt-control --on syslog-ng-sender
>
> To configure/start a syslog-ng receiver, do this:
>
> $VDT_LOCATION/vdt/setup/configure_syslog_ng_receiver --server y
> $VDT_LOCATION/vdt/setup/configure_syslog_ng_receiver --dir /opt/osg-
> logs
> vdt-control --on syslog-ng-receiver
>
> The new config sends nothing to the GOC. Later, once we figure out
> an appropriate filter policy, we /might/ forward a small subset of
> the logs to the GOC.

> This documentation also will need to be updated:

> Let me know if you have any questions.

> I would be great if this could be in the 1.0 release.
