Hi all! Is anybody here using rsyslog? I am looking for the right solution how to use rsyslog in CentOS 5 as the default logging daemon. We use it because of filtering using regular expressions. I switched from sysklogd to rsyslog simply using chkconfig --del syslog chkconfig --add rsyslog chkconfig rsyslog on service syslog stop service rsyslog start but this seems not to be "bullet-proof" solution - when yum automaticaly install updates, sysklogd rpm package runs postinstall scriptlet which unfortu...

sysklogd in RH4.2 always opens a UDP listen socket, even when -r is not specified on the command line. It doesn''t check the file descriptor when -r is off though, but the behaviour still irritates the system administrator greatly (see also the recent bugtraq messages about this). Here is a patch t...

Greetings list-members! I''m a puppet newb and I''m trying to write a recipe that replaces the standard Redhat sysklogd with syslog-ng. I do this to separate shorewall-generated iptables log messages from / var/log/messages into a separate log. I have something that works now but it spews warnings every time puppetd runs on the client. The outline of what I wanted was to - install syslog-ng - configur...

Hi there, I am slightly confused by the RHEL release notes and an earlier thread here about rsyslogd, so I hope someone can clear this up for me; I see that rsyslog is included in RHEL as of 5.2 (and so will be available in CentOS when 5.2 is ready) however there is no indication of whether it has been made the default syslogger or not - is it an optional package or installed by default on a

The opposite (trying to boot a HVM domain while a regular paravirtualized domain is running) crashes the system as well. I could not find any information in the kernel log (the crash must occurs before sysklogd has a chance to log anything).
