Remote syslog
2007-12-25 4:09:00
I am setting up remote syslog for one of my machines. I did the
following
Remote syslog server(linux redhat v9):
/etc/sysconfig/syslog
SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-m 0 -r -x"
Syslog client(Solaris 9):
/etc/syslog.conf
*.* @<ip address of the server>
/etc/hosts
<ip address of the syslog server> <syslog server name> loghost
I have 'syslog udp/514' listed in the /etc/services file. I then
restarted the syslog daemons on both the server and the client.
I still don't see the messages coming from the client to the servers
messages file. Do I need to make any entries elsewhere. Also, as I
understand the messages from the client will be displayed in the
/var/log/messages file of the server. Is there a way to have the
messages go to diff file. For example in /var/log/syslogclient.messages?
Thanks in advance.
