[Log4sh-users] Log4sh on RHEL4

[jay <tit...@gm...>]

Helllo,

I'm trying to get remote logging using log4sh working on a RHEL4 update 5
box.  I'm having a bit of trouble.

I ran all of the tests, and local logging works fine, so I know log4sh runs
ok on that release.  When I try the sample for remote logging, I get
nothing.  I've tested the remote logging with other methods (python) and it
works, so I know its setup correctly.  I've tried setting the LOG4SH_DEBUG
environment variable, but I get nothing that could help.  No errors in
fact.  I have run tcpdump on the other end on port 514, and nothing is
showing up on the wire.  Here is the test script I'm using

#!/bin/sh

# load log4sh (disabling properties file warning) and clear the default
# configuration
LOG4SH_CONFIGURATION='none' . ./log4sh
log4sh_resetConfiguration

# set alternative 'nc' command
log4sh_setAlternative nc /usr/bin/nc

# add and configure a SyslogAppender that logs to a remote host
logger_addAppender mySyslog
appender_setType mySyslog SyslogAppender
appender_syslog_setFacility mySyslog local4
appender_syslog_setHost mySyslog cbtsscdb
appender_activateOptions mySyslog

# say Hello to the world
logger_info 'Hello, world'

Is there something else I could try to troubleshoot this?  Thanks for any
help.

Jay
