Hi

You can configure de data who syslog could send to you, so maybe you should preview what kind of analysis are you going 
to do with that data.

Anyway, rsyslog is a great way to send data to your mysql db.

Asunto: Logging dhcpd leases strategies

Which approach would you use to log dhcpd leases in mysql?

Currently we are considering either parsing the dhcpd.leases~ database
file or enabling syslog.   Enabling syslog would give us a stream of
dhcpd log activity which we could pipe into the database whereas the
dhcpd.lease~ database woould be a snapshot of the leases at that
moment in time.

regards,
