Im running Debian 4.0 on a number of PowerEdge servers here and I am having some issues with syslog. These machines run various applications. In this case ill take cvs. When a remote machine connects to cvs I get : Feb 12 14:54:04 buzz runcvs[1533]: connect from 172.16.165.144 (172.16.165.144)
The machines are all pretty much just basic installs of Debian, with resolve.conf pointed at windows DNS servers. When I do an nslookup of the IP: buzz:~# nslookup 172.16.165.144 Server: 172.16.164.100 Address: 172.16.164.100#53 144.165.16.172.in-addr.arpa name = galvin.XXXXX.com. As our domain use DHCP for the windows clients, when I go back a few days later, the syslog entries are close to useless to mea s the IP may have changed. How do I get syslog to log the hostname of the connecting machine? I have tried syslog-ng (albeit I didn't change many parameters) but to the same effect. I still get the IPs of the connecting machine. Any ideas? B The information in this email is confidential and may be legally privileged. It is intended solely for the addressee.
