hi there syslog gurus.. Is the configuration below enough for me to log some of my routers ? 157.0.1.1 is my syslog server and im suppose to get logs frm a few routers. I have added appropriate logging commands on the routers to log to the syslog server but i don't see anything. syslog-ng is started and listening on both udp/tcp . Im running on freebsd --start-- ## syslog-ng source remote { unix-stream("/var/run/log"); internal(); pipe("/dev/klog"); udp(ip(157.0.1.1) port(514)); tcp(ip(157.0.1.1) port(514) keep-alive(yes)); }; destination std { file("/var/log/hosts/$HOST/$YEAR/$MONTH/$DAY/$FACILITY" owner(root) group(root) perm(0644) dir_perm(0755) create_dirs(yes)); }; log { source(remote); destination(std); }; destination authlog { file("/var/log/auth.log"); }; destination cron { file("/var/log/cron.log"); }; destination debug { file("/var/log/debug.log"); }; destination kern { file("/var/log/kern.log"); }; destination user { file("/var/log/userlog"); }; destination maillog { file("/var/log/maillog"); }; destination security { file("/var/log/security"); }; destination messages { file("/var/log/messages"); }; --end-- any hints or help is much appreciated. thanks fico
