My simple aim is to listen to UDP 514 on IP/ x /and create a text file.
I really don't need to filter or define the file format as the input
devise provides all date and time stamping information.
I have read the doc pages on syslog-ng and then examples currently
existing in syslog-ng.conf and they appear to contradict each other at
times.
The closest script I can come up with is
#
source s_udp { udp(ip(192.168.100.10) port(514); destination(d_file) };
destination d_file { file("/var/log/skot" ); };
#
Could someone assist me making this work (yes I have opened UDP 514 in
the suse firewall as required and can see the info in wireshark)
After I can get this part to work I will later look at log rotate.
Could someone also give the the command line syntax to stop and re-start
the syslog-ng daemon rather than me re-starting a new session.
thanks in advance
Scott :'(
