martouf 0 Posted August 10, 2004 first off, you should read this document written by an admin of a site getting about 45 million hits a day. next, read this document written by an admin who has set up a multi-system-one-logfile configuration. Note the use of a pipe as the log destination. The general Apache documentation section on logs will round out your knowledge. Basically, you'll need to have Apache pipe all of the logging to the syslog daemon. With the logging all going to syslog, you set each system in the farm to send logging to the one log host you designate, whose own syslog receives the log data via a LAN.
