We use syslog-ng here; very robust application (which by the way looks like will be the new default logger for fedora and then presumably redhat); for reviewing and parsing, we use in house developed scripts (mostly awk and grep) as well as logwatch (ran on the syslog server instead of each client) Aaron -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jim Canfield Sent: Monday, January 08, 2007 12:05 PM To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Managing logs General Question: I have a combination of RHEL 4 and Centos servers. Currently I'm getting e-mail from logwatch each morning on each machine. I'm sure there is a better way of managing and viewing system logs. Can anyone suggest a centralized method of gathering/formating system log information? I have looked at systems like nagios but they seem like a lot of work to get up and running. Thanks.
