Solaris 8 syslog trouble
2007-12-24 20:16:00
I'm running a SUN Enterprise 220R with Solaris 8:
$ uname -a
SunOS hostname 5.8 Generic_108528-08 sun4u sparc
$
I have some troubles with my syslog-daemon. It does not log
anything.
Here's an example log entry from an other machine:
| Jul 1 15:14:21 otherhost postfix/master[562]: [ID 197553
| mail.info] terminating on signal 15
This gets logged when "postfix stop" is executed. On my
machine, nothing gets logged when I do a "postfix stop".
But I believe, I configured syslog the right way. From my
/etc/syslog.conf:
mail.info;mail.err;mail.notice ifdef(`LOGHOST', /var/log/syslog, @loghost)
(Yes, there's a tab between "notice" and "ifdef")
Now I'm wondering, why nothing gets logged to /var/log/syslog. Here's what=
I
get by running /usr/sbin/syslogd -d:
