Hi Bill,
Thanks for the response . When I tried the following it didn't seem to work. The remote host doesn't show any logs .
source postgreslog {file("/home/postgres/data_log-8_4_1"); }; destination postgresloghost { udp("192.168.1.8" port(5140)); }; log { source(postgreslog); destination(postgresloghost); };
Are you really sure that your psql logs come from "/home/postgres/data_log-8_4_1"? You can run syslog-ng with "-Fevd" options to watch what syslog-ng reads from this file (to check this just send a plain text line to this file and you should see it on the screen of syslog-ng)
But the following works :
filter f_postgres { facility(local0) and match('postgres'); }; destination postgresloghost { udp("192.168.1.8" port(5140)); }; log { source(src); filter(f_postgres); destination(postgresloghost); flags(final); };
Can you show me your full source src{...} line in config? Because your psql logs seem to be coming from /dev/log
What could be wrong ? I have also noticed that the remote syslog server logs these messages in its /var/log/messages file also . Can this be prevented ?
Yes because your sources also should be splitted to different destinations. For example: source s_net {udp(port(5140));}; destination psql_file{file("/var/log/psql.log");}; log {source(s_net);destination(psql_file);};
Thank you

Sure, it's very easy. Create a source stanza for the files you want to monitor. Create a destination stanza for the host you want to send to. Add another log stanza containing them both.
source mysqllog { file("/var/lib/mysql/mysql.err" log_prefix("mysql: "); }; destination mysqlloghost { udp("192.168.1.1" port (514)); }; log{ source(mysqllog); destination(mysqlloghost); };

Hi,
Is it possible to log only a particular logs to a remote syslog server ? For example logging only mysql/postgres logs to a remote host . syslog-ng version used is syslog-ng 1.6.8
Thank you.
