there should not have been the ! on the right side
rsyslog has three trees of variables that you can set, plus properties that look
like variables that you can't set (rsyslog sets them from the message)
log with the template RSYSLOG_DebugFormat to see how it works.
$! and $. are very flexible, $! was created first and is the default for message
modification modules to use, so the idea is to use it for things that you intend
to have in the message (so you can put $! in the message template), !. was
created so that you have a place to set variables that you don't intend to be
part of the message (aka temp variables, things you will use in dynafile
templates, etc)
re--doing my example as I had flaws in it that I'm now seeing.
set $.relay = $!trusted!relay;
set $!trusted!relay!last = $.relay;
set $!trusted!relay!host = $myhostname;
set $!trusted!relay!last = $fromhost-ip;
set $!trusted!relay!time = $timegenerated;

Thanks, David!!
Interesting (and pretty cool) concept. In my case I know there will
always only be the 3-level hierarchy (client/forwarder/aggregator), so I'm
not sure I need something that generic, I only need to know the client and
forwarder. Still, I will consider that.
Silly n00b question: What is the difference between $fromhost-ip (which is
what my current forwarder config is using) and $!fromhost-ip (that you
use)? (The difference being the '!' in there?)
Thanks,

set $!trusted.relay.last = $.relay;
set $!trusted.relay.host = $hostname;
set $!trusted.relay.last = $!fromhost-ip;

then in the final aggregator, I have all the info I could want about what

the log has gone through, when it was proccessed by each relay, etc.
I also have the sender add additional metadata here as well (if it's
reading
from a file , what filename for example)

Hi Rainer.
Thank you for the reply (even though it's not the answer I was hoping to
hear).
So I guess the next question is how (or where) to add an identifier for
an
intermediary.
Let's say I have a network that looks like this:
[ Client1 ] --\
[ Client2 ] ---+- [ Forwarder1 ] -\
[ Client3 ] --/ \
+-- [ Aggregator ]
[ Client4 ] --\ /
[ Client5 ] ---+- [ Forwarder2 ] -/
[ Client6 ] --/
When I see messages at the Aggregator I want to know not only what
Client
it came from, but also what Forwarder it came through.
Right now on the forwarders I change the message to include the client
IP
and Client hostname (using set $!msg), and then send it using an onfwd
template (note that I have a intermediary variable for fromhost-ip
here):
type="string" string="%timegenerated% from:%$fromhost-ip%
%syslogseverity-text%%$!msg%\n"
At the aggregator I also need to know whether a message came from
Forwarder1 or Forwarder2, so I would like to add the Forwarder IP and
hostname to the message that goes up to the aggregator. Right now it
uses
this template for omfile:
type="string" string="%timegenerated% %msg%\n"
Will $hostname and $fromhost-ip on the aggregator be the hostname and ip
of the forwarder? Or the client?
What would be the best way to include this extra information in my log
entries?
Thanks,
-derek

Thanks Rainer,
This is working smashingly!
The next issue I'm trying to solve is how do I add the client
certificate
information into the log message? I'd like to add e.g. the client
certificate subject (or subjectAltName) into my log template (similar
to
how you can add the client hostname or fromhost-ip).
Again, I am having issues searching, as any combination of "rsyslog"
and
"certificate" seems to bring up documentation on "how to configure
TLS"
which, obviously, I already know how to do...
Any help or guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi,
Are there docs on how to set this up on a per-input and/or
per-omfwd
basis?
All the docs I can find suggest setting the global
DefaultNetstreamDriver*
variables, which in my case are not what I want because I need to
be
able
to use different keys/certs/CAs for the input/imtcp vs the omfwd
operations.
I am running 8.2204.1.
Thanks,

There were some improvements to TLS handling introduced over
several
versions so you'd have to review the changelog and docs.
But from what I see, the omfwd module supports setting separate
TLS
key/cert/cacert per action since 8.2108.
The imtcp module also supports setting those on a per-input
level
since
8.2108.
So it should work.
It is always a good idea to do a tcpdump and see how the
handshake
progresses and when and where it fails.

Hi I am trying to get rsyslog to receive store/forward

client --->tls---> rsyslog --->tls---> remote.something
I got it set up so i could send to the rsyslog server but then
i
couldn't
add another ca/cert files. My config was using global and
defaultnetstream
I found on rsyslog.com that prior to 8.2202 it couldn't use
tls
on
two
different source/dest. I found the cent 7 repo and got
rsyslog-8.2204
installed. Now nothing works. I think i got the config
correct
but
the
client keeps getting rejected.
Apr 23 17:13:39 rlog rsyslogd[11417]: GnuTLS handshake retry
returned
error: The TLS connection was non-properly terminated.
[v8.2204.0
try

So then i tried going to the ossl module. Now its even worse.
My
config
is a mess now too.
Does tls on both sides work?
Do I need the 8.2202+ version?
Do you have an example config?
