Hi, Couple of notes: * When reading messages from a file, you are using flags(no-parse) which means that you will not have facility information. I dont see that you need the filter at all, as you are using dedicated destinations. I think that filter can be removed. * you dont need separate destinations to each file, just use one destination and connect both sources to it * If you run syslog-ng in foreground and enable debug mode it emits information about messages entering and leaving * 3.6 is ancient, not to mention 2.0.9, you should probably upgrade On May 22, 2018 04:08, "Song, Young" <young.song@sap.com> wrote:
Hi,
I’m trying to send various flat files to a central syslog-ng server.
So, I have the following setups but somehow using the “local1” and “local2” facilities don’t work, although no errors when restarting syslog services on both client & server.
Any advice would be appreciated much!
=======================================================================
*My syslog-ng CLIENT (running syslog-ng 3.6.2):*
source s_file1 { file("/var/log/syslog/file1.log" follow-freq(1) flags(no-parse) program_override("audit")); };
filter f_file1 { facility(local1); };
destination d_file1 { syslog("10.10.10.10" transport("udp") port(514)); };
log { source(s_file1); filter(f_file1); destination(d_file1); };
source s_file2 { file("/var/log/syslog/file2.log" follow-freq(1) flags(no-parse) program_override("audit")); };
filter f_file2 { facility(local2); };
destination d_file2 { syslog("10.10.10.10" transport("udp") port(514)); };
log { source(s_file2); filter(f_file2); destination(d_file2); };
========================================================================
*My syslog-ng SERVER (10.10.10.10 – running syslog-ng 2.0.9):*
destination d_file1 { file ("/var/log/syslogs/file1-$YEAR$MONTH$DAY.log" owner(root) group(root) perm(0644) dir_perm(0755) create_dirs(yes)); };
filter f_file1 { facility(local1); };
log { source(remote); filter(f_file1); destination(d_file1); };
destination d_file2 { file ("/var/log/syslogs/file2-$YEAR$MONTH$DAY.log" owner(root) group(root) perm(0644) dir_perm(0755) create_dirs(yes)); };
filter f_file2 { facility(local2); };
log { source(remote); filter(f_file2); destination(d_file2); };
Thanks.
