	syslogd-tubs:					May 1994


A syslogd replacement with add-on for central observation of incoming
messages (telnet to port 8567 and you get all the messages).  Should
be plug-in compatible to your existing daemon (note: does not have the
m4 magic of suns syslogd) and is used by with tkined / scotty.

Everybody who can connect to port 8567 on your central syslog host may
get your syslog-messages - you may consider this as insecure, so you are
warned.

Derived from ``syslogd.c   5.45 (Berkeley) 3/2/91''.

Still configures, compiles and runs on 

	SunOS 4.1.x, Linux 1.x
and should work on
	HP-UX and Ultrix


Run  ``./configure'' to configure and compile with ``make''.
Options to ./configure are ``-v'' for verbose execution and
``--prefix=<path>'' for the installation prefix (defaults to
/usr/local).

You may ``make install'' to install or copy the syslogd binary to your
startup place (usually /usr/etc) on the host you wish to run this
extended version (only one central host neccessary).

Add
	*.debug		@watchhost

to /etc/syslog.conf on your hosts of interest to foward a copy of all
messages to the enhanced syslogd on ``watchhost''.


TODO:
	* Use clean fd_set type instead of int for selection masks.
	* Add a variable service port #.
	* Add connect restrictions for the service.
