Hi, maybe there is a posting covering my question... I installed syslog-ng 1.4.15 on a Solaris 8 box. I use an default configfile from the contrib directory. Every time there is a log message I get up to four entries in my logfile. Is anybody using this configfile? Where is the problem? Regards Reinhold # syslog-ng configuration file. # # This should behave pretty much like the original syslog on SunOS. But # it could be configured a lot smarter. # # See syslog-ng(8) and syslog-ng.conf(5) for more information. # # 20000925 gb@sysfive.com options { sync (0); time_reopen (10); log_fifo_size (1000); long_hostnames (off); use_dns (no); use_fqdn (no); create_dirs (no); keep_hostname (yes); }; source s_sys { sun-streams ("/dev/log" door("/etc/.syslog_door")); internal(); }; destination d_cons { file("/dev/console"); }; destination d_mesg { file("/var/adm/messages"); }; destination d_mail { file("/var/log/syslog"); }; destination d_auth { file("/var/log/authlog"); }; destination d_mlop { usertty("operator"); }; destination d_mlrt { usertty("root"); }; destination d_mlal { usertty("*"); }; filter f_filter1 { level(err) or (level(notice) and facility (auth, kern)); }; filter f_filter2 { level(err) or (facility(kern) and level(notice)) or (facility(daemon) and level(notice)) or (facility(mail) and level(crit)); }; filter f_filter3 { level(alert) or (facility(kern) and level(err)) or (facility(daemon) and level(err)); }; filter f_filter4 { level(alert); }; filter f_filter5 { level(emerg); }; filter f_filter6 { facility(kern) and level(notice); }; filter f_filter7 { facility(mail) and level(debug); }; filter f_filter8 { facility(user) and level(err); }; filter f_filter9 { facility(user) and level(alert); }; log { source(s_sys); filter(f_filter1); destination(d_cons); }; log { source(s_sys); filter(f_filter2); destination(d_mesg); }; log { source(s_sys); filter(f_filter3); destination(d_mlop); }; log { source(s_sys); filter(f_filter4); destination(d_mlrt); }; log { source(s_sys); filter(f_filter5); destination(d_mlal); }; log { source(s_sys); filter(f_filter6); destination(d_auth); }; log { source(s_sys); filter(f_filter7); destination(d_mail); }; log { source(s_sys); filter(f_filter8); destination(d_cons); destination(d_mesg); }; log { source(s_sys); filter(f_filter9); destination(d_mlop); destination(d_mlrt); }; Mit freundlichen Grüßen Reinhold Farsch HVBInfo GmbH Abt.
