Hi Jose, Jose Sanchez írta:
Hello,
I've been using classic syslog for centralizing apache access logs from one server to a remote syslog server, the thing is syslog adds some nasty tags before the lines in the access logs and I cant get them off, ie:
"Nov 25 21:25:37 server1 logger:"
I would like to know if syslog-ng has the option to filter this kind of stuff, I just want to have the logs sent to the syslog server exactly like I was saving them in a local access.log file.
I don't understand you completely where you use syslog or syslog-ng on these hosts If you use syslog-ng then yes the syslog-ng can do it. There is an example of the possible solutions if both sides are syslog-ng: _client side:_ source s_file{file("/var/log/apache2/access.log" flags(no-parse) );}; destination d_tcp{tcp("10.30.0.32" port(666) template("$MSG\n") );}; log { source(s_file); destination(d_tcp); }; _server side:_ source s_tcp{tcp(port(666) flags(no-parse) );}; destination d_test { file("/var/log/test.log" template("$MSG\n") ); }; log { source (s_tcp); destination(d_test); }; if you use syslogd on client side and syslog-ng on the server side you need to use a config like this (but I am not sure in this case): source s_tcp{udp(port(514));}; destination d_test { file("/var/log/test.log" template("$MSG\n") ); }; log { source (s_tcp); destination(d_test); };
Thanks in advance.
