Re: [Astlinux-users] Redirecting all AstLinux logs to an external syslog server

[Lonnie A. <li...@lo...>]

Bart,

Just to be clear, add

SYSLOGHOST="10.1.2.3"

to your /mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/user.conf file.

service netsyslogd stop
gen-rc-conf
service netsyslogd init

I'm OK at the Asterisk part, but pretty lame at the Linux side, especially in a minimalist environment that's flooded with optimizations to prevent or contain permanent changes. I'm currently running astlinux-1.3.1 x86_64 - Asterisk 13.17.2 on an APU2.

The most obvious (and easiest) avenue was to look at the GUI for an option to specify a remote syslog server but no such setting exists. The next step was to look for syslogd.conf (or similar) to see if I could fiddle that...but I couldn't find that either....
