hi all
how does one allow remote syslog (not syslog-ng) servers currently
logging to the syslog on the central log server (running vanilla syslog)
access to dump syslog entires into syslog-ng when started ?
if i tail /var/log/messages when syslog-ng is running and syslog is
stopped, i can see local messages but nothing from remote hosts which
are setup to log to the host.
see below re my syslog-ng conf file.
options {
long_hostnames(off);
sync(0);
stats(43200);
dns_cache(yes);
use_fqdn(no);
keep_hostname(yes);
use_dns(yes);
};
source shell {
internal();
unix-stream("/dev/log");
tcp(ip(192.49.109.241) port(514) max-connections(300));
};
destination localhost {
file("/var/log/messages");
};
log {
source(shell); destination(localhost);
};
