Hi, I have a problem with syslogs from my bintec routers. The logs all have ^@ at the end of each line. This problem appears since I am using syslog-ng 1.6.4. Bevor I used the version 1.4.x., there were no problems. Please help. Thx and Greetings Benjamin

How to get IP addresses ONLY in the syslog file
by Markus Foerster 28 May '04

28 May '04

Hi, I want to get IP addresses only (not hostnames) in the files written by syslog-ng. I set the relevant options as: options { long_hostnames (off); use_dns (no); use_fqdn (no); keep_hostname (no); use_time_recvd (yes); }; It works for remote connections, however localhost still appears with its device name. Can I get it to log as "127.0.0.1" instead? Ideally I don't want to have the host name in the config file (I know I could define a different template for the local host name or something). Thanks Markus

created dirs problem
by Dian HiWi 28 May '04

Hi all! Here is a part from my .conf file: #################################################################### source udp_mesg { udp( port(514));}; destination d_locals{ file("/var/log/test/$HOST/$FACILITY_$LEVEL/$DAY.$MONTH.$YEAR.log" owner("root") group("adm") perm (0640) dir_perm(0740) create_dirs(yes));}; log { source(udp_mesg);filter(f_messages);destination(d_locals);}; #################################################################### It logs fine, still without facilities, but the problem comes perhaps from my devices, not from syslog-ng. The strange what happend is: As I listed the directories in my log-directory, I found out, that there are about hundred hidden dierectories. I log from tho devices, and there were, as it should be, two dirs for their logs. But in the hidden directories(.00 to .99) there were logs from the devices, most from severity 'notice'. Has anyone idea, what could be the problem? cheers Dian P.S.

solaris 9 problem, no logging
by Oscar Knight 27 May '04

27 May '04

Hello All, Running Solaris 9. I installed syslog-ng. I kill solaris syslogd and then start syslog-ng. I get nothing. I even tried "syslog-ng -d -d" It says it started, nothing else. I use logger to test, nothing. Any suggestions? Some details: I've installed syslog-ng from sunfreeware.com packages: libol-0.3.13-sol9-sparc-local.gz syslogng-1.6.4-sol9-sparc-local.gz /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf: # # Syslog-ng example configuration file for Solaris # # Copyright (c) 1999 Balazs Scheidler # $Id: syslog-ng.conf.solaris,v 1.2 1999/11/15 12:30:41 bazsi Exp $ # # Solaris 2.5.1 and below uses the STREAMS driver, above extends it # with doors. For 2.5.1 remove the door() option from the source declaration. # source local { sun-streams("/dev/log" door("/etc/.syslog_door")); internal(); }; #destination all { file("/var/log/messages"); }; destination all { file("/var/log/syslog"); }; log { source(local); destination(all); }; Thanks in advance, odk -- Oscar D.
