Hello,
I need to log the syslog messages from a host 192.168.1.10 to
a host 192.168.1.3. Both are running Redhat 9 Linux.
There is no DNS in the network.
I did the following steps:
On the log server:
------------------
1. I edited the /etc/services file to add the line
syslogd 514/UDP
2. I stopped the syslogd with "service syslogd stop".
3. I restarted the network service too?
4. I srated the syslogd from command line using "syslogd -r"
Question: Can syslog do both remote (listen for other syslogs)
and local logging (for the log server's messages)?
---------------------
On the remote machine:
---------------------
1. I edited /etc/syslog.conf to add this line
*.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none
@mycomputer -------> New line
*.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none
/var/log/messages -------> Deleted Line
2. In the /etc/hosts file I entered the line
192.168.1.3 mycomputer
Problem: The syslogd failed to start.
Please advise.
Thanks a lot.
