Good call, and if you're running rsyslog go to rsyslog.conf/doc and read
about templates... You can rewrite anything to your heart's content with
a little effort.

RE: configure syslog prefix
hhhmmm
I have not run multiple binds on the same box, but according to the man pages
for named.conf (assuming you have a different configuration file for each
instance) setup each to report to a different logging facility ie:
in named.conf:
logging {
channel default_syslog {
syslog local7;
severity info;
};
...
and in /etc/rsyslog.conf
# Save named messages firstnamedinstance.log
local7.*
/var/log/firstnamedinstance.log
(If you have logrotate installed)You may also want to add a file in
/etc/logrotate.d with the following info:
/var/log/firstnamedinstance.log {
sharedscripts
postrotate
/bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/rsyslogd.pid 2> /dev/null` 2> /dev/null ||
true
endscript
}
So it will rotate the logs

I'm afraid you can not do that and playing with named process name or links won't help However: you can use "print-category yes" which will give you a category name to which the particular logs belong to. http://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind9/cur/9.9/doc/arm/Bv9ARM.ch06.html#id2576269 -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uh...@fantomas.sk ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.

Yes. The syslog tag comes from named's idea of its progname, which it gets from argv[0], which is the name you used to invoke it.

configure syslog prefix
Hi! I have several bind instances running on the same host. All of them use the same logging prefix, e.g: named[11926]: zone mydomain/IN: Transfer started. named[11926]: transfer of 'mydomain/IN' from 2.3.4.5#53: connected using 2.3.4.5#44224 named[13479]: client 2.3.4.5#44224: transfer of 'mydomain/IN': AXFR-style IXFR started: TSIG mydomain named[13479]: client 2.3.4.5#44224: transfer of 'mydomain/IN': AXFR-style IXFR ended So I only have the PID to separate the different bind processes. Some software allows to configure the syslog prefix, but I couldn't find that for bind. Is there a workaround to get something like that? named-incoming[11926]: zone mydomain/IN: Transfer started. named-incoming[11926]: transfer of 'mydomain/IN' from 2.3.4.5#53: connected using 2.3.4.5#44224 named-outgoing[13479]: client 2.3.4.5#44224: transfer of 'mydomain/IN': AXFR-style IXFR started: TSIG mydomain named-outgoing[13479]: client 2.3.4.5#44224: transfer of 'mydomain/IN': AXFR-style IXFR ended Thanks Klaus ___ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
