How to split logs in the default folders?
by tokie＠tiscali.it 23 Dec '11

Hi, I'm not yet able to store my log by ip address. Can someone help me? How can I redirect everything that comes from a unique ip address (from LAN) to a folder I created? eg.: 192.168.1.1 (host1) == logs ==> 192.168.1.2 (syslog-ng-server )--->/ var/log/hosts/192.168.1.1 Tks and merry xmas!!!

Solaris 10 support(?) in latest versions (e.g. 3.3.2)
by Marvin Nipper 22 Dec '11

22 Dec '11

Apologies upfront for the length, but this addresses two different problems. Environment: Solaris 10 x64 U10, fully patched (i.e. pretty much "new"). Currently operating (successfully) with 3.0.5, compiled on that platform, and distributed to a number of other Solaris 10 x64 targets. Problem: Trying to "make the leap" to 3.3.2, and get current, but that version seems to have numerous Solaris compatibility issues. Just trying to understand the status of Solaris support. Problem #1 Latest packaging no longer works with Solaris-based "make". After a clean configure (output here): syslog-ng Open Source Edition 3.3.2 configured Compiler options: compiler : gcc -std=gnu99 compiler options : -g -O2 -Wall -pthread -D_REENTRANT -D_PTHREADS -I/usr/local/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/local/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/local/include/eventlog -I/usr/local/ssl/include -DLIBNET_LIL_ENDIAN -I$(top_srcdir)/lib/ivykis/lib/include -I$(top_builddir)/lib/ivykis/lib/include -I$(top_srcdir)/lib/ivykis/modules/include -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 linker flags : -R/usr/local/lib -lpthread prefix : /usr/local linking mode : dynamic __thread keyword : yes Submodules: ivykis : internal libmongo-client : internal Features: Debug symbols : no GCC profiling : no Memtrace : no IPV6 support : yes spoof-source support : yes tcp-wrapper support : no Linux capability support : no PCRE support : no Env wrapper support : no systemd support : no (unit dir: none) Modules: Module search path : /usr/local/lib/syslog-ng Default module list : affile,afprog,afsocket,afuser,basicfuncs,csvparser,dbparser,syslogformat,afstreams Sun STREAMS support (module): yes SSL support (module) : yes SQL support (module) : no PACCT module (EXPERIMENTAL) : no MongoDB destination (module): yes JSON support (module) : no (using no) ..... a simple "make" attempt now immediately results in this: # make make all-recursive Making all in lib make: Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 991: Unexpected end of line seen Current working directory /var/opt/packages/syslog-ng-3.3.2/lib *** Error code 1 The following command caused the error: fail= failcom='exit 1'; \ for f in x $MAKEFLAGS; do \ case $f in \ *=* | --[!k]*);; \ *k*) failcom='fail=yes';; \ esac; \ done; \ dot_seen=no; \ target=`echo all-recursive | sed s/-recursive//`; \ list='lib modules syslog-ng scripts tests doc contrib scl debian tgz2build build'; for subdir in $list; do \ echo "Making $target in $subdir"; \ if test "$subdir" = "."; then \ dot_seen=yes; \ local_target="$target-am"; \ else \ local_target="$target"; \ fi; \ (CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd $subdir && make $local_target) \ || eval $failcom; \ done; \ if test "$dot_seen" = "no"; then \ make "$target-am" || exit 1; \ fi; test -z "$fail" make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all-recursive' Current working directory /var/opt/packages/syslog-ng-3.3.2 *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all' Not being a developer, per se, I spent time in Google-land, the general result that I find is: "These are caused because Solaris "make" doesn't accept the 'GNU multi-line Makefile format'. Use gmake instead." But there are obviously folks who also say that this can be fixed by "correcting" the problems in the Makefiles (so that would seem to be a preferable alternative). Problem #2 Can no longer perform successful compilations, due to this error: ld: fatal: relocation error: R_386_GOTOFF Same configure output as previously shown, followed by gmake (to get around the first problem). Numerous modules compile successfully, but then this happens: gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../.. -D_GNU_SOURCE -I../../lib/include -I../../lib/include -I../../modules/include -Wall -g -O2 -D_REENTRANT -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199506L -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS -D_XPG4_2 -MT iv_event_test.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/iv_event_test.Tpo -c -o iv_event_test.o iv_event_test.c mv -f .deps/iv_event_test.Tpo .deps/iv_event_test.Po /bin/bash ../../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link gcc -Wall -g -O2 -D_REENTRANT -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199506L -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS -D_XPG4_2 -R/usr/local/lib -o iv_event_test iv_event_test.o ../../lib/libivykis.la ../libivykis-modules.la -lrt -lpthread -lsocket libtool: link: gcc -Wall -g -O2 -D_REENTRANT -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199506L -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS -D_XPG4_2 -o iv_event_test iv_event_test.o ../../lib/.libs/libivykis.a ../.libs/libivykis-modules.a /var/opt/packages/syslog-ng-3.3.2/lib/ivykis/lib/.libs/libivykis.a -lrt -lpthread -lsocket -R/usr/local/lib ld: fatal: relocation error: R_386_GOTOFF: file ../.libs/libivykis-modules.a(iv_event.o): symbol __tls: relocation illegal for TLS symbol ld: fatal: relocation error: R_386_GOTOFF: file ../.libs/libivykis-modules.a(iv_event.o): symbol __tls: relocation illegal for TLS symbol ld: fatal: relocation error: R_386_GOTOFF: file ../.libs/libivykis-modules.a(iv_event.o): symbol __tls: relocation illegal for TLS symbol ld: fatal: relocation error: R_386_GOTOFF: file ../.libs/libivykis-modules.a(iv_event.o): symbol __tls: relocation illegal for TLS symbol collect2: ld returned 1 exit status gmake[7]: *** [iv_event_test] Error 1 gmake[7]: Leaving directory `/var/opt/packages/syslog-ng-3.3.2/lib/ivykis/modules/test' gmake[6]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[6]: Leaving directory `/var/opt/packages/syslog-ng-3.3.2/lib/ivykis/modules' gmake[5]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[5]: Leaving directory `/var/opt/packages/syslog-ng-3.3.2/lib/ivykis' gmake[4]: *** [all] Error 2 gmake[4]: Leaving directory `/var/opt/packages/syslog-ng-3.3.2/lib/ivykis' gmake[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/var/opt/packages/syslog-ng-3.3.2/lib' gmake[2]: *** [all] Error 2 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/var/opt/packages/syslog-ng-3.3.2/lib' gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/var/opt/packages/syslog-ng-3.3.2' gmake: *** [all] Error 2 Again, adopting the "Google is my friend" approach, this appears to be an issue with "Solaris not supporting Visibility". (http://www.ilkda.com/compile/Build_Problems.htm) Most of the sites where I see this being discussed, with other (various) source components, I also see the developers subsequently modifying their environment to "adjust for" the Visibility issue in Solaris. So, again, not being a C developer myself, I guess I'm wondering whether I'm just doing something wrong with 3.3.2 (i.e. something that I need to do different from my 3.0.5 compilation), or whether this is truly just a "Solaris thing" that has not been accounted for in the current code base? Sorry for not being better at sorting this out myself. Any and all help/guidance would certainly be appreciated. GLAD to do some sort of testing here, if that will help.

Quick filter question again
by Lay, James 22 Dec '11

22 Dec '11

Hey all! Hope this is quick/easy. So I'm matching IP's that I don't want to see...filter below: message("66\.220\.") My issues is, this will match not only say 66.220.1.1, but also 166.220.1.1. I've tried changing to: message(" 66\.220\.") but that'd didn't fly. Any suggestions on how to more exactly match IP blocks? Thanks all. James

[PATCH (3.4) 0/1]: value-pairs: Add value_pairs_foreach_sorted().
by Gergely Nagy 22 Dec '11

22 Dec '11

The patch that will follow shortly implements a value_pairs_foreach_sorted() function, that can be used for multiple purposes in the future: - Template functions that want to format their output with keys always in a predictable order. - Various other parts of the code, that work better when operating on a sorted collection. I'm submitting it separately, so that it'll be easier for me to build upon it in the not too distant future. (And because I almost forgot to send it, even though it was origianlly made in early november...)

[PATCH (3.4)] afsql: Add support for specifying custom SQL backend options.
by Gergely Nagy 22 Dec '11

22 Dec '11

When one is using an SQL backend that supports a set of options that syslog-ng does not set itself, yet, one does want these options set, there was previously no way to accomplish that without changing the source. This patch adds a new option: dbd-option(OPTION_NAME VALUE) (where OPTION_NAME is always a string, and value can be either a string, or a number). The options specified this way will always be set with libdbi whenever we (re)connect to the database. A simple use-case: destination d_slow_sql_test { sql(type("null") dbd-option("null.sleep.connect" 1) dbd-option("null.sleep.query" 5) columns("dummy") values("1") ); }; Signed-off-by: Gergely Nagy <algernon(a)balabit.hu> --- modules/afsql/afsql-grammar.ym | 3 +++ modules/afsql/afsql-parser.c | 2 ++ modules/afsql/afsql.c | 40 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ modules/afsql/afsql.h | 4 ++++ 4 files changed, 49 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/modules/afsql/afsql-grammar.ym b/modules/afsql/afsql-grammar.ym index 580fb80..d21a3bf 100644 --- a/modules/afsql/afsql-grammar.ym +++ b/modules/afsql/afsql-grammar.ym @@ -54,6 +54,7 @@ extern LogDriver *last_driver;

Is it possible to specify a restriction on the minimum length of a syslog message? We often receive small, malformed messages that we do not want to transmit. Thanks, Vincent

patterndb & not describing the entire log message
by Christophe Brocas 22 Dec '11

22 Dec '11

Hello As I said before in other message, I currently work with patterndb to write a pattern file describing Windows log messages related to file system. These messages are sent to Syslog-NG through Snare software. Example : Aug 12 15:08:48 10.0.0.1 MSWinEventLog 1 Security 541 ven. août 12 15:08:46 201 4656 Microsoft-Windows-Security-Auditing D00000001\accout1 N/A Success Audit hostname.d00000001.subdom1.dom1.fr Système de fichiers Un handle vers un objet a été demandé. Sujet : ID de sécurité : S-1-5-21-514083418-1667312537-733111063-1179 Nom du compte : account1 Domaine du compte : D00000001 ID d’ouverture de session : 0x8e90858 Objet : Serveur de l’objet : Security Type d’objet : File Nom de l’objet : E:\xxx\yyyy\filename.doc.doc ID du handle : 0x2b0 Informations sur le processus : ID du processus : 0xeb0 Nom du processus : C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\w3wp.exe Informations sur la demande d’accès : ID de la transaction : {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000} Accès : DELETE SYNCHRONIZE ReadAttributes Masque d’accès : 0x110080 Privilèges utilisés pour les vérifications d’accès : - Nombre de SID restreints : 0 540 Question : That kind of messages are extremely long and some areas seem empty in my example but may be not in the future. Is there a way with pattern to not describe the entire message but only the relevant part for us (the equivalent of wildcard in regexp) ?
