similar to: centos 5.2 new syslog?

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

I have a 64bit centos 5.2 system. My router supports sending logs to a syslog server, so I was hoping to send them to my centos box so they are easier to keep an eye on. I've been googling for howto's etc, but I didn't think syslog would be that difficult. Do I need to use syslog-ng or can I use the syslog that's installed with centos 5.2? Any suggestions or guidance? Thanks,

Hi All. I've used syslog-ng for some time. I like it. I have a project in which I need to choose a central logging solution. What are your experiences with rsyslog? Is it more complex to setup than syslog-ng? Or maybe does it have some additional features? I am also thinking about using some gui tools for log parsing and graphing. May be proprietary/paid. Any suggestions? Best regards,

I have several network appliances, and I want aggregate their syslog output for later analysis. Eventually I might think about a Splunk box, but for the interim I'm hoping to just build a CentOS 6 syslog server and have it aggregate everything on it for quick review. I installed rsyslog and am looking through the /etc/rsyslog.conf file for what I configure to (a) listen for syslog input from

Trying to figure out if there's a way to get syslog.conf to direct remote logging from a wireless access point to log to a separate file instead of the main syslog and can't figure out how that could be done from man syslog.conf (or man 2/3 of syslog) this clearly doesn't work 192.168.1.251.* /var/log/WAP-2.log which according to the man page, makes

Hey gang, I find myself struggling with multiple step definitions in cucumber all the time. I regularly test the contents of my flash[:notice] in steps, since I think that''s part of the behaviour of the app. So, while implementing a new feature, I ran into the following error: /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/cucumber-0.1.15/bin/../lib/cucumber/ step_mother.rb:81:in

Hi, I''m trying to make all my servers send their logs to a central server. Which seems quite simple, at first. My problem is that my servers are on different versions of different operating systems. And each of them has a different syslog default provider (syslog, rsyslog, syslog-ng...). Which of course might have been replaced by an admin who prefered another... Even funnier, SLES10

Is there a way to configure dovecot to register in syslog the debug messages enabled by mail_debug=yes as a debug not as information? I need this because I want to send this kind of information only to a remote server. I've configured rsyslog to do this, but dovecot is registering those debug messages as information not as debug (as I expected). This is my rsyslog config: mail.info;\

Hi All. I have a setup in which: - applications deployed in weblogic log directly to weblogic; - components of weblogic (domain, admin server, managed servers) log to proper files (default logging). I would like to connect logging to syslog server. Is it possible? As I have read it is possible to log from applications with log4j if they send logs to weblogic server (on weblogic level

Hello, the "man syslog.conf" explains how to filter syslog messages by facility (auth, authpriv, cron, daemon, kern, ... ) or by priority (debug, info, notice, warning, ...). But how could I redirect messages by a program name, like "drupal" or "php"? For example I have in /var/log/messages: Mar 20 04:20:44 mysite drupal: http://mysite|1300594844|page not

Is there a suggested way to get the Gluster client/server logs handled by a local syslog daemon without too much trouble? My main reason for doing this is to get the logs to a central logging server and for easier log rotation. It looks like a patch was submitted but doesn't look to ever have made it in: http://www.mail-archive.com/gluster-devel at nongnu.org/msg05465.html I'm
