Again, how much are you trying to send to your syslog server? > An alternative is to use Logback as it includes an access log filter for Tomcat too https://github.com/grgrzybek/tomcat-slf4j-logback Note that you will have to configure Logback to write to Syslog (see logback docs: http://logback.qos.ch/documentation.html), just as you would for Log4J. Depending upon the syslog implementation used in CentOS 5.4 you may want to look at alternatives for improved performance / avoidance of dropped messages etc. For example, you could use rsyslog or nsyslog Brett > > Dan > > > to a central logging > > server (splunk/graylog2).
