man lr_desyslog (Commandes) - strip syslog style header from logfile line

NAME

lr_desyslog - strip syslog style header from logfile line

SYNOPSIS

lr_desyslog program

DESCRIPTION

lr_desyslog removes a syslog style timestamp, hostname, and program, and prints the remaining stuff given on stdin to stdout. E.g, when invoked as lr_desyslog qmail, it throws away things like 'Oct 29 10:07:44 gelfand qmail:', and keeps '972810464.240168 end msg 6161'. This is useful when processing qmail logs, which are processed by splogger.

TODO

Handle pid's in program syslog tag.
