remote syslog and syslog.conf question

2007-12-25 4:20:00

Hello All,

I am trying to set up remote syslogging on a system.

I have added the log server to the clients host file and added the following to the syslog.conf:

auth.notice @syslog
auth.notice /var/log/authlog

I have HUP'ed the syslog services on both boxes and while things are being logged on the machines nothing is showing up at the log server from the client.

I think I should also be able to combine the two lines but when I try:

auth.notice @syslog, /var/log/authlog

Nothing is logged

What am I missing? Or do you need more information.

Thanks,
Rodney
