A command line utility to copy UNIX domain socket datagrams from one socket to two other sockets.
Features:
- First destination socket is blocking.
- Second destination socket is buffered.
- Optionally drop oldest datagrams when buffer is full or block.
- Reconnect to buffered socket without dropping (internally) buffered datagrams.
- Configurable maximum datagram size and buffered socket buffer size.
- Optionally prefix datagrams with TAI64N or RFC3339 receive timestamps.
Example usage

# Save syslog messages in a log file
socklog unix /var/run/syslog-local > /var/log/syslog &
# Forward syslog messages to remote log server
socklog unix -R /var/run/syslog-forward | nc -t prod.store.whatclinic.net 514 &
# Copy syslog messages for local storage and forwarding
