Howdy -- I am a syslog-ng newbie, and am setting it up for the first time. I would like to have logs for all my machines end up in the same files they have always ended up in (messages, cron, maillog, etc), so I have setup rules, that so far seem to be handling this quite well :) However, I want to make sure that there aren't any unlogged requests coming through, so I tried setting up a catchall statement. However when I log something to local5.debug using logger (which there is no filter for), it doesn't end up in my "other" logfile. it just disappears as far as I can tell. I tried pasting the whole config file inline, however yahoo's editor screws up the formatting. SO, I've posted the config file at http://www.muck.net/syslog-ng/syslog-ng-conf.txt and I will paste the relevent lines below (note I do not have a filter statement for catchall, should I? I wouldn't know how to do that). destination other { file("/var/log/other" owner(root) group(root) perm(0600) ); }; log { source(src_local); source(src_network); destination(other); flags(fallback); }; Any help is greatly appreciated. :) __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
