B.18 /etc/syslog.conf

Use this file to specify the type of logging in the system. If no additional hard
disk is installed, logging can be directed to another network attached system;
otherwise local files are used.

Stanzas in /etc/grcons.log.conf determine how large the respective files may
grow and how many versions are kept of them.

# NetStar $Id: syslog.conf,v 1.6.4.3 1997/09/15 14:57:37 pargal Exp $

#

# To enable the logging of system messages on GRF systems, edit the

# entries in the "Log messages to Network" section below.

#

# - uncomment the lines in the "Log messages to Network" section

# of this config file (just below these instructions)

#

# - change "server.domain.com" to the name of a syslog server on

# your local network to which this router may send log messages

#

# - add the IP address of the log server and its host name to /etc/hosts

# on this GRF system.

#

# - run "grwrite -v" command to save your changes to

# /etc/syslog.conf and /etc/hosts

#

# - add the following lines to the /etc/syslog.conf on your log server:

# (do not include the # from the first column of this file, ie.,

# add "local5.* /var/log/mib2d.log" not "#local5.* /var/...")

#

# #

# # Syslog configuration for syslog server systems

# # GRF-specific log files (from GRF systems over the network)

# #

# local0.info /var/log/gritd.packets

# local1.info /var/log/gr.console

# local2.* /var/log/gr.boot

# local3.* /var/log/grinchd.log

# local4.* /var/log/gr.conferrs

# local5.* /var/log/mib2d.log

# local6.* /var/log/fred.log

#

# - kill and restart syslogd on your syslog server machine after making

# sure that the log files added to the config file exist

# on the log server machine exist (use the "touch" command

# to create them if they do not exist, then restart syslogd

# on the syslog server machine).

#

# - kill and restart syslogd on the GRF router (or reboot the GRF).

#

# To uncomment, remove "#net# from each line in this section

#

#

# Log messages to Network

#

#net#*.err;kern.debug;auth.notice;mail.crit @server.domain.com

#net#*.notice;kern.debug;lpr,auth.info;mail.crit @server.domain.com
