Dear all,

I need to direct error log messages to syslog.

AIX 4.3.3.10

this is what I did:

1. created file /tmp/syslog.add with the following
   contents

   errnotify:
           en_name = "syslog1"
           en_persistenceflg = 1
           en_method = "logger Msg from Error Log:
`errpt -l $1 | grep -v 'ERROR_ID TIMESTAMP'`"

2. odmadd /tmp/syslog.add

3. odmget -q"en_name = 'syslog1'" errnotify

4. errlogger test message from error log

Are these all I need to do? if yes, how to verify the
test message has gone to syslog?

Thanks a lot!

Bill
