Hello All:
I am trying to use one of my linux boxes to get information from my
foundry switches (and eventually a lot of other gear) using the syslog
facility. This will be in addition to SNMP which I am already using via
CACTI
I have managed to configure things so that the messages are heading to
/var/logs/messages, but I cannot seem to get them to go to the device
specific files that I have designated.
Here is a copy of my /etc/syslog.conf file
# Log all kernel messages to the console.
# Logging much else clutters up the screen.
#kern.* /dev/console
# Log anything (except mail) of level info or higher.
# Don't log private authentication messages!
*.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none
/var/log/messages
# The authpriv file has restricted access.
authpriv.* /var/log/secure
# Log all the mail messages in one place.
mail.* /var/log/maillog
# Log cron stuff
cron.* /var/log/cron
# Everybody gets emergency messages
*.emerg *
# Save news errors of level crit and higher in a special file.
uucp,news.crit /var/log/spooler
# Save boot messages also to boot.log
local7.*
/var/log/boot.log
#send messages from Lancelot to Lancelot.log
192.168.0.225.*
/var/log/lancelot.log
#send messages from tristan. tristan.log
192.168.0.231.*
/var/log/tristan.log
tristan.*
/var/log/tristan.log
