Just getting started with rsyslog and finding the documentation pretty confusing.
Probably not the fault of the documentation but more my lack of knowledge. What I'd like to do is have rsyslog create a directory for incoming foreign logs for each host that sends syslog info. >From there, its ok if it all goes in a single log, inside the directory for now, and I may work out some splitting scheme later. So far, with help from posters here I've managed to get the logs comming in from remote machines and logging to a file named after the host. ... I suspect I should be able to figure it out from the pages here (line wrapped for mail): http://wiki.rsyslog.com/index.php \ /Sysklogd_drop-in_with_remote_logs_separated_by_dynamic_directory $template DYNmessages,"/var/log/%HOSTNAME%/messages" But I'd want the directory named for the host and include all logs from that host, not just the `messages' log. Not quite getting how to edit that line to make it happen. _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com
