I know its probably me being intellectually challenged here, however
Im trying to setup rsyslogd to log everything for remote hosts to a
mysql DB.

I have in my rsyslog.conf:

$ModLoad ommysql.so
# Provides UDP syslog reception
$ModLoad imudp
$UDPServerRun 514

 Which as far as Im aware should let me simply do something akin to:

:fromhost-ip, isequal, "192.168.1.1"     :ommysql:localhost,Syslog,user,password

Which just doesnt work.
nor does setting local stuff like the following work:

mail.*
:ommysql:localhost,Syslog,user,password

The whole rsyslog.conf file is here:
http://pastebin.com/RuXwM3Gp

Help? please?

Thanks,
Simon.
