The default is 0, which means the +system default port is used. There is no need to specify this directive unless +you know the server is running on a non-standard listen port. +<li>Action parameters: +<br><b>:ommysql:database-server,database-name,database-userid,database-password</b> +<br>All parameters should be filled in for a successful connect. +</ul> +<p><b>Sample:</b></p> +<p>The following sample writes all syslog messages to the +database "syslog_db" on mysqlsever.example.com.
