Hello all, I am new to this list, I am seeking some help on how to setup syslog-ng as a central log server. More importantly I am wanting to know how to log all of my Apache servers to the central log server, but also create separate logs for each of the systems. For example I am looking to do something like this: Apache1 /var/log/Apache1/httpd/access.log /var/log/Apache1/httpd/error.log Apache2 /var/log/Apache2/httpd/access.log /var/log/Apache2/httpd/error.log Apache3 /var/log/Apache3/httpd/access.log /var/log/Apache3/httd/error.log and so on. Thanks all in advance Vince
For the error logs, logging to syslog (or syslog-ng) is built into Apache. For the access logs, try SNARE for Apache: http://www.intersectalliance.com/projects/SnareApache/index.html You can use this in conjunction with syslog-ng. It will send you're apache logs to the syslog daemon on the local system, then all you have to do it set up syslog-ng to forward the logs to a central server and separate them according to the server sending the logs. This is all built into syslog-ng. b _____ From: syslog-ng-bounces@lists.balabit.hu [mailto:syslog-ng-bounces@lists.balabit.hu] On Behalf Of Esquivel, Vicente Sent: Monday, November 21, 2005 8:39 AM To: Syslog-ng users' and developers' mailing list Subject: [syslog-ng] Apache Syslog-ng/Syslog-ng newbie Hello all, I am new to this list, I am seeking some help on how to setup syslog-ng as a central log server.
