Currently, I have a log server that accepts remote logs from our PIX, Modem Racks, DSLAMS, etc, and logs them to where they need to be.
BUT, what I would like to do, is make that a full service log server, and have it take logs from all our machines.
I know how to set up the servers to send their messages to the syslog server, what I dont quite know, is how to set up the syslog server to log the various incoming messages.
For example, I would like to send all messages that normally go in /var/log/messages to the syslog server, AND have the syslog server store them in a file like this: hostname.messages. That way, I can have 10 different machines logging to the syslog server, with each getting their own logfile on the server to make parsing easier.
any ideas? And one thing I havent been able to find so far, the local* defs in syslog.conf. I know now that local7 is for boot messages, but what about the rest??
