Hi again,

I watched the http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=fewUSu_QZAY about logging to remote files.

Problem is this is for TCP. I tried to do something similar for UDP but still can not get it to work.

These are the changes I have made :

#Specific ruleset for remote messages
$Ruleset remote
*.*     /var/log/cisco.log


# provides UDP syslog reception
$ModLoad imudp
$InputUDPServerBindRuleset remote
$UDPServerRun 514

#Switch back to default ruleset
$Ruleset RSYSLOG_DefaultRuleset


Can someone please suggest a way to get this remote logging to work.

Thanks,

Dan

Hi everybody,

I have been asked to log from our CISCO switches and routers to our Ubuntu server. Currently I am logging to the syslog.log but need to sepearate all CISCO logs into /var/log/cisco.log

When I check this /var/log/cisco.log  I dont see any logs.

        *.=notice;*.=warn       |/dev/xconsole



So my question is how do I get my CISCO logs into /var/log/cisco.log  ?

Thanks for helping.

Dan
