set up your source: source src { unix-stream("/dev/log"); internal(); udp(ip(0.0.0.0<http://0.0.0.0>) port (514)); }; set up a simple filter: filter f_syslog { not facility(auth, authpriv) and not facility(mail) ; }; and set up the destination file be a new file for each new host: destination syslog { file("/var/log/HOSTS/$HOST"); }; and don't forget the log statement: log { source(src); filter(f_syslog); destination(syslog); }; chris On 9/7/05, Joost greene <joost.greene@gmail.com> wrote:
Hello,
I have different sets of devices, dslams, nas, core routers, customer routers,...
i want to syslog them all, i want to make each device log to a file separately to ease it up for NOC, someone suggested syslog-ng, frankly, i got quickly lost in its docs, the syntax isnt clear, how can i just easily specify to let it log per source into different files ?
Regards, Joost
