I am running Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS on EC2.
Install Or Upgrade To Latest Stable Version Of Rsyslog On CentOS 5 And 6
This tutorial shows how you can install new generation of syslog servers by using
Rsyslog on CentOS 5. It also shows you how to upgrade obsolete Rsyslog 4.0 on CentOS 6.
When I'm trying to send log from rsyslog to syslog-ng, the hostnames are getting shortened. Instead of inbound.server.com, I only recieve inbound at the syslog-ng side even though I have FQDN option enabled at receiving side.
THe syslog-ng servers works perfectly when I use syslog to send the logs so there is some problem at the sending side.
I would like to configure our rsyslog server to drop the timestamp of the incoming messages and replace them with time from the rsyslog server.
Reason for this is that we have some system that don't have the option to change the time on their logging entrys.
Our rsyslog-server is running with: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.3 (Santiago)
So i would like to know if that is possible and
I'm trying to figure out the best way to setup a central place to store and interrogate server logs. syslog, Apache, MySQL etc.
I've found a few different options but I'm not sure what would be best. I'm looking for something that is easy to install and keep updated on many virtual machines.
I'm working on a project with a small number of servers which host a PHP application.
Hello,
My issue here is that rsyslog seems to be dropping data. I first installed Debian 5 on a old HP Proliant server that has 1gb of ram and 1TB of storage in old ass disk array. While the server is old it is not THAT old and runs all tasks fine. I pushed my firewall traffic logs plus some Windows server event logs to this server.
Hello there,
I am associated with one of the projects in a non-profit organization. We are currently in need of an open source syslog (rsyslog to be precise) analyzer which can do saved searches among other features.
One can have private or public saved searches.
I have a central log server that all my servers send their logs to. Every so often several of the servers stop sending their logs to the main server. If I restart syslog on the client I get the logger shuting down messages, and then it starts sending messages again.
Any idea where to begin debugging? Also the central log server runs rsyslog and most of teh clients run syslog.
