Jonathan,
I'm actually planning to roll out RADIUS on a
virtualization platform too, probably Xen. Could you share what VM
platform you're using? Thanks!

whoa. thats completely different to what the current server does,
virtual or not. what details do you want to syslog?
For a start I want to syslog the stuff that usually goes
into radius.log - so the messages when the server starts (which are already
being syslogged successfully) and the summary line (Auth: Login OK) printed
after an authentication (which are currently not being sent to syslog).
I
also want to syslog the stuff that normally gets filed away under
/var/log/radius/radacct - so details of radius packets for debugging.
The
reason for wanting to send everything to a log host on the network is that the
new generation of radius servers we are preparing are all virtualised and only
have a few GB of disk - so no room for
logs.
Cheers,
Jonathan
