Hi, I am trying to implement a centralized syslog-ng solution for testing purpose. My configuration is SLES10 on mainframe guest.
I had followed the steps given in the article below.
http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/18044.html
I have created the configuration on server
# # uncomment to process log messages from network: udp(port(514)); tcp(ip(" 192.168.1.42") port(5140) keep-alive(yes));
# this is for separating out network hosts into individual log files. destination std { file ("/var/log/HOSTS/$YEAR-$MONTH/$HOST/$FACILITY-$YEAR-$MONTH-$DAY"
owner(root) group(root) perm(0600) dir_perm(0700) create_dirs(y\es) ); }; log { source(src); destination(std); };
I then ran SuSEconfig --module syslog-ng. After that i started the syslog service thru /etc/init.d
I don't really know SuSE, so I'm not sure how exactly it generates configuration files. Have you checked that syslog-ng started up properly? -- Bazsi
