Ok, so the problem is with trying to do the regex match in the if statement.
Rainer may need to look at this. Unfortunantly the new syntax was added during
the 6.x series, so it's very possible that this syntax just doesn't work. The
documentation that ships with that version will say what's available for that
version. check that documentation to see what it lists for rainerscript
functions.
The other approach is to make a multi-level conditional and use the older style
regex
:msg, regex, 'COMMAND=/bin/.*sh' {
if $programname == 'sudo' and $msg contains 'USER=root' then
/my/logdirectory/logging/rootshell
}

Hi, David-
I confirmed that this is the problem line, by commenting it out. I made the
change you suggested, but am still receiving the same error.
Thanks,

hmm, looking at the filtering documentation, I'm not seeing the eregex syntax
you are trying to use. Instead I'm seeing:
re_match(expr, re) - returns 1, if expr matches re, 0 otherwise
so I think what you are trying to do would be:
if $programname == 'sudo' and $msg contains 'USER=root' and
re_match($msg,'COMMAND=/bin/.*sh') then /my/logdirectory/logging/rootshell

just a quick check, try removing the entire eregex section just to make sure
that our problem is in that clause
i.e. change it to:
if $programname == 'sudo' and $msg contains 'USER=root' then
/my/logdirectory/logging/rootshell
before we spend too much time on this, let's make sure we are working the
right problem.

Hi, David- I tried that, but I unfortunately received the same error
message. Thanks for the suggestion, though!

Hello, all-
The folks at the IRC channel on freenode referred me here. Can anyone tell
me what is wrong with my config file? Nothing is getting logged, and
rsyslog is throwing an error. Before anyone suggests it, I can't deviate
from the version in the Solaris repositories- otherwise I would do 7.4 .
The error:
rsyslogd: syntax error in expression [try http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2051 ]
rsyslogd: the last error occured in /etc/rsyslog.conf, line 16:"if

rsyslogd: warning: selector line without actions will be discarded

Thanks!
That version is picky about ' vs " try changing the " in that line to ' and
see
if you keep getting the error.
