[syslog-ng] Forwarding flat files to a remote syslog-ng server

[Song, Young]

Hi,


I'm trying to send various flat files to a central syslog-ng server.

So, I have the following setups but somehow using the "local1" and "local2" facilities don't work, although no errors when restarting syslog services on both client & server.

Any advice would be appreciated much!


=======================================================================

My syslog-ng CLIENT (running syslog-ng 3.6.2):

source s_file1 { file("/var/log/syslog/file1.log" follow-freq(1) flags(no-parse) program_override("audit")); };
filter f_file1 { facility(local1); };
destination d_file1 { syslog("10.10.10.10" transport("udp") port(514)); };
log { source(s_file1); filter(f_file1); destination(d_file1); };

source s_file2 { file("/var/log/syslog/file2.log" follow-freq(1) flags(no-parse) program_override("audit")); };
filter f_file2 { facility(local2); };
destination d_file2 { syslog("10.10.10.10" transport("udp") port(514)); };
log { source(s_file2); filter(f_file2); destination(d_file2); };


========================================================================

My syslog-ng SERVER (10.10.10.10 - running syslog-ng 2.0.9):

destination d_file1 { file ("/var/log/syslogs/file1-$YEAR$MONTH$DAY.log" owner(root) group(root) perm(0644) dir_perm(0755) create_dirs(yes)); };
filter f_file1 { facility(local1); };
log { source(remote); filter(f_file1); destination(d_file1); };

destination d_file2 { file ("/var/log/syslogs/file2-$YEAR$MONTH$DAY.log" owner(root) group(root) perm(0644) dir_perm(0755) create_dirs(yes)); };
filter f_file2 { facility(local2); };
log { source(remote); filter(f_file2); destination(d_file2); };


Thanks.
