[olug] syslog help

[Trent Melcher]

Look like its setup for network connection by default however you need to
make sure your config has something similar to this.

#
# This is the default behavior of sysklogd package
# Logs may come from unix stream, but not from another machine.
#
#source src { unix-stream("/dev/log"); internal(); };
# network logs come from both UDP on the local network
source src { unix-stream("/dev/log"); internal(); udp(); };

I found that one -- syslog-ng doesn't have a -r option (do a
"syslog-ng --help' from the command line as root). I did try to start it
anyway, but it said '-r' was invalid.

To Robert -- Good idea.  I set it to "DEBUG" (another setting in the
.properties file) and got a slew of message in STDOUT and other log file,
but none in my syslog files.

Any other ideas??
