This is kind of a silly question, but did you bounce the syslogd after you made that config change? Assuming you're sending this to a syslog-ng daemon as a central collection source, where is the syslog-ng daemon configured to place logs for that facility/severity combination? - billn On Thu, 12 Jan 2006, Peter Koinange wrote:
I have just installed syslog-ng and am logging to a mysql database. I am trying to implement a centralized syslog system. Everything is working well except for auth-priv facility. I cannot seem to get to them sent to the centralized database.
When l run test with logger on the remote computer get the following error logger: unknown facility name: auth-priv. however syslog on the remove computer has the entry # The authpriv file has restricted access. authpriv.* /var/log/secure and is logging to the secure file with no problems
when I add an entry for the remote compter to send the info authpriv.* @host.me.com
the logs do not show up. Can someone advise me on what to I can
