Running on Ubuntu I want Jetty 8 to write to syslog instead of the logs folder. In my Java I just want to use getLogger.info(messaeg)...
I can see my app logs in the Jetty logs at $JETTY_HOME/logs, but I want all Jetty messages to be written to syslog.
I'd recommend to use slf4j + logback as described here: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Tutorial/Sifting_Logs_with_Logback
Then you can configure logback to write to a syslog appender like this one: http://logback.qos.ch/manual/appenders.html#SyslogAppender
Should be pretty straight forward using these documentations. If you still have any questions, ask right away.
