Hi Mark,
The router has been set up to log to the local2 facility and I've added these lines to the end of /etc/syslog.conf:
!* +P650R-31 local2 /var/log/router/zyxel
Can anyuone suggest why this is not working?
how did you start syslogd? If it was started from /etc/rc.conf without modifying the flags for syslogd, it won't work. The default-flag for syslogd is
syslogd_flags="-s"
From the man-page:
-s Operate in secure mode. Do not log messages from remote machines. If specified twice, no network socket will be opened at all, which also disables logging to remote machines.
You have to disable this option and restart syslogd.
Thanks, yes, I was. I've changed it and restarted without ''-s'' but it still doesn't appear to be logging anything - I configured the router to log everything so the file should grow quite quickly.
Do you have any other idea(s)?
Regards,
Mark
