Mailing List Archive: Reverse network connection?

Hi

I want to implement something akin to
https://www.rsyslog.com/doc/master/tutorials/tls_cert_server.html this
structure with a central server that recevies messages from at least one
device, possibly more. But what I would like to do differently is for the
central rsyslog to be the one that connects to an open port on each client
(thus reversing the server/client concept).

Is this feasible? central.example.net would have to connect to
zuse.example.net:zuse_port, turing.example.net:turing_port, etc, being
zuse_port and turing_port maybe the same or maybe different, keeping the
TLS infrastructure working.

Thanks!

No, that's unfortunately not possible (because it is very uncommon).
