Hello, I have a rather strange problem with an rsyslog-machine.
I configured it to process incoming logs over network via tcp port 514 using imtcp. The incoming logs on that connection are simply stored in a specific folder in a log-file. This setup works 90% of the time but sometimes logs get "lost". I have no idea what causes it. I set up a tcpdump on the receiving machine and I can confirm that the packages are indeed being delivered. But for some reason rsyslog does not notice them. I can find all other log-messages mentioned in the rsyslog-debug log, where they are noticed and processed correctly. The ones that don't make it to the logfiles are no where to be found. I cannot find any difference in these files, so I would expect them to be handled identically. Has anyone of you ever had similar problems and found a solution? Its not a firewall or network problem as the packages are definitely reaching the client. I am grateful for any support you guys can provide With kind regards -- Florian Seifer Berater secunet Anwendungen, Managed Security Services Division Operational Services secunet Security Networks AG Tel.: +49 201 5454-2297, Fax: +49 201 5454-1259 [email protected] Kurfürstenstraße 58, 45138 Essen, Germany www.secunet.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Sitz: Kurfürstenstraße 58, 45138 Essen Amtsgericht Essen HRB 13615 Vorstand: Axel Deininger (Vors.), Torsten Henn, Dr. Kai Martius, Thomas Pleines Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Ralf Wintergerst _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list https://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
