Syslog Configuration

[Joe Barty]

Can the syslogs be sent to a log file and to a network collector.

[James R. Ferguson]

Hi Joe:

Yes, see the 'syslogd' manpages. You can forward messages to another host.

I looked at the article and it described advance feature, but did not specifically indicate how to ocnfigure syslog-ng to log to disk and to a network device.

[Analyst]

Correct me if I am wrong,

"To configure syslog-ng to log to disk and to a network device"

Go through the man page ,
Its mentioned that,
for BUGS
If you find any, please send email to the syslog-ng mailing list at
syslog-ng@lists.balabit.hu

Probably you can send your request and get it clarified.

Thanks,
Analyst.
