Re: remote syslog to specific file

2006-12-14 Thread bsd

Thanks David but…


I have followed precisely your advises and It keeps on loging to /var/ 
log/messages instead of /var/log/sonic.log ??



!fw
*.* /var/log/sonic.log


Using tab instead and no spaces - restarting syslog - ??
I have also tried !firewall // no success //

My logs are coming from a remote host maybe this is the reason why it  
can't log to sonic.log ?


localhost --> 192.168.2.2

remote host --> 192.168.2.1


Any help would still be apreciated ?!?

Hello,


I am trying to log my sonicwall FW log to a specific file…

For the moment all logs are sent to /var/log/messages

I would like them to go to /var/log/sonic.log


I have tried couple of things which does not seem to work, among  
them :


> +fw.xxx.yyy
> local0.*   /var/log/sonic.log

--> not working

> local0.*   /var/log/sonic.log
--> not working either


In /var/log/messages my log are of that format :

> 14:50:45" fw=80.98.206.97 pri=5 c=64 m=36 msg="TCP connection

Any help would be welcome.


Try installing those two lines in your syslog.conf(5) file and make
sure you use TAB instead of spaces.

!fw
*.* /var/log/sonic.log

Then issue a `sudo touch /var/log/sonic.log` as the file must exist
before syslogd(8) can write to it (i.e. syslogd(8) does not create
files).

After this run `sudo /etc/rc.d/syslogd restart` to instruct syslogd(8)
of the changes you've made to syslog.conf(5).

Finally, make sure you edit newsyslog.conf(5) with something like this
to keep your /var file system from filling up.

/var/log/sonic.logwww:wheel 640  7 100  *   J

man newsyslog.conf for more on newsyslog.conf(5)'s syntax.

Cheers,

David
