Taken from http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/redhatserver.htm [...] To make a server accept log messages from other machines you need to enable syslog remote reception. This can be done by editing /etc/sysconfig/syslog and adding "-r" to the SYSLOGD_OPTIONS so it looks like this SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-m 0 -r" Then restart syslog by doing # /etc/rc.d/init.d/syslog restart You should see a message in the log files about remote reception To make a machine send it's log messages to your log server you need to add an entry to /etc/syslog.conf. Something like *.info @loghost should be all that is needed. See the man page for more details (man 5 syslog.conf) You also need to restart syslog after this change. The procedure is the same as above. [...] Please note that you _really should_ store log files locally also. -- Tommi Nikkilä -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Koray Sonmez Sent: 28. toukokuuta 2007 11:04 To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: accumulate messages Hi, I have several Redhat servers.
