is that really your entire config, nothing else?

Subject: [rsyslog] Dynamic file generation issue

Hey all,

I've got a pretty simple configuration as below:

module(load="imudp")
input(type="imudp" port="514")

$template DynaFile,"/var/log/ext/%HOSTNAME%/%timestamp:::date-month%/%timestamp:::date-day%/%timestamp:::date-hour%.log"
*.* -?DynaFile


This appears to be working but I've noticed this oddity. I'm seeing logs being sent to 2 locations, not duplicates from the looks of it. The first location is the one specified in the template above, the other is being sent to a file called *syslog* in /var/log/syslog. When looking at the logs I'm not seeing any obvious differences between the messages. I want all messages to go where I've defined the dynafile location. Does anyone have any input as to what could be happening?

Here are some examples:

/var/log/ext/10.10.10.10/11/21$ tail 16.log
Nov 21 16:59:59 10.10.10.10 %ASA-6-106100: access-list inside_access_in denied tcp inside/x.x.x.x(53194) -> outside/x.x.x.x(80) hit-cnt 1 first hit [0xc58201ba, 0x38466015]

/var/log$ tail syslog
Nov 21 17:01:33 10.10.10.10 %ASA-6-106100: access-list inside_access_in denied tcp inside/x.x.x.x(49548) -> outside/x.x.x.x(443) hit-cnt 1 first hit [0xc58201ba, 0x6838bf3c]

Thanks,

Will
