<H3>Adding a log server:</H3>
This is a fairly simple process. Complete the following fields:
<UL>
<LI> <B>Server name</B>: Name or nickname of the logging server for
future identification
<LI> <B>Hostname</B>: IP address or fully qualified domain name of
the logging server that SLOP can use to connect to the server
<LI> <B>Username</B>: Username that SLOP can use to login to the
server
<LI> <B>Password</B>: Preferrably you can configure ssh on the server
running SLOP to communicate with the logging server using
public/private keys without passwords (see manpage for
ssh-keygen). If you can\'t do this, enter a password here so
the user running your slop perl scripts can login to the logging
server.
</UL>
When the form has been filled out, click the "Add Log Server" button.
As with the other forms, try to not use characters that could be escapes
or wildcards (*/\$%@&).
<P>
After submitting the form, SLOP will verify the information is acceptable
and notify you of success or failure.
