Im using in rsyslog.conf the simplest possible change:
##### RULES #####
*.info;mail.none; ....... /var/log/%HOSTNAME%/mm_messages
That's what I thought. This is a bit wrong. You need to define a
template to be used for the file name - because the above could
actually mean the path literally.
Out of my head, I do not remember the old syntax, but you can
copy&paste the following in your config instead of that line:
template(name="filename" type="string" string="/var/log/%HOSTNAME%/mm_messages")
*.info;mail.none; ....... action(type="omfile" dynafile="filename")
HTH,
Rainer
with "ls /var/log/"
i find the directory %Hostname%, witihn there the logfile.
