I am collecting syslogs from a PIX and a couple of Barracudas. It
would be a lot easier for each to have their own logfile. I have been
poking around a bit; I saw this one:
+host1 /var/log/host1
but it doesn't appear to work.
Years ago I tried and failed at the same. Since then, I've moved to
syslog-ng which I've been extremely happy with.
Here is the bit in my syslog-ng.conf file for logging things from
remote hosts
# for stuff from remote hosts:
destination hosts {
file("/var/log/HOSTS/$HOST/$YEAR/$MONTH/$DAY/$FACILITY-$YEAR$MONTH
$DAY"
owner(daemon) group(wheel) dir_owner(daemon) dir_group(wheel)
perm(0640) dir_perm(0750) create_dirs(yes));
};
log {
source(s_udp);
destination(hosts);
};
