Hi Bazsi Here's an update and continued question: Everything seems to be fine when syslogging remotely from the Solaris box to the Linux box except that cron priorities of debug - critical don't get sent (just emerg). Also, Solaris and Linux boxes alike won't send daemon priorities debug or information messages to the log host. New problem: We need to send logs from our Cisco 2511 access router and 6509 switch/router to the Linux log host, but it's not working. I've set logging facility and host from the Cisco devices, but they don't get logged on the log host. Any ideas or advise? As always: Thanks much for all your help!! rb Ron Braley Network Team Leader - CCNP Systems Team Leader - MCSE, CNE University of North Dakota (Aerospace College) braley@aero.und.edu 701-777-2964 (work) / 2940 (fax)
