I am setting up a bunch of computers to send there logs to a
logserver. I have it set up pretty well and finally figured out the
network issue. Everything works great.
I was wondering about how daemons send there logs to
syslog/syslog-ng. Do all daemons send there logs through the
kernel/klogd or do some of them send there logs directly to syslog? If
I stop syslog will they start to send them to syslog-ng?
Also I am having trouble with the rules for syslog-ng.conf. If I
tell it to send everything with a priority of emerg through debug it
should send everything right? I am not receiving some logs that are
being picked up by syslog. Do some logs not have a priority?
How do I tell syslog-ng just to send everything to the logserver?
No filters? It might not work too well because of the volume of logs
but I would like to try it.
BTW
Is there going to be an updated manual anytime soon? The current one is
not very helpfull.
