Hi all,

I do have a logical problem I need a hint for.

I want to configure redundant central logservers so that
- the clients send messages to one and fail over to the second if the first is off - not all clients send to the same primary, but share the load (half of the clients sends to server A as primary, other half to B as primary)
That is the easy part, I have that working.

Now I want the logservers to forward everything they receive over the network to the other logserver. In the end they should have the same amount of log messages, the complete set.

I cannot simply add a line to the logservers' config forwarding everything over to the other one - that would build a loop.

So I need a way of configuring "forward only what you received from clients, but not from the other logserver". That still would be fairly easy if I replaced the originating hostname in the log message with that of the forwarding logserver.
But I want the originating logclient's hostname to remain.

I remember having solved that problem once some years ago, but I googled all day and did not find the solution.

Any hint or help would be appreciated.

Dirk
