Remote logging to different server

[tom quach_1]

Dear,

HP-UX 11.31
i've configured remote logging from HP-UX to HP-UX, it's working fine i can see the log write to local and remote HPUX server.
we just purchase a Cisco MARS, it is a logserver. but i can only make linux send logfile to this MARS but not HPUX.
Please help it anyone uses MARS as logserver on HPUX env.
Thanks in advance.
Tom

could you post your /etc/syslogd.conf please.

I think I read this backwards.

You want your linux box to send syslog messages to the HPUX server ?

Thanks for your reply.
i would like to send syslog from HPUX to MARS
(reading to MARS's doc it supports Generic,Solaris,Linux)
The Linus is working now, only HP-UX could not send syslog to the MARS.

Thanks,

in this syslog.conf the syslog server 10.10.2.15 is working fine but it could not send log to 10.10.0.8 and 10.10.4.87

Check syslog.conf using this command:

cat -tv /etc/syslog.conf

You should see *NO* spaces between items in the list. Only tabs (shown as ^I) are allowed and any line that has a space is ignored (without any error message).
