Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Configuring syslog.conf Post 302764121 by zazzybob on Thursday 31st of January 2013 02:49:30 AM

This will work, as long as the Windows syslog server windowshost is resolvable by DNS or /etc/hosts (or whatever naming services you're using) and the syslog server is listening on port 514/udp. Kiwi Syslog on Windows works fine for this, and I've used it many times previously.

BTW: Please use code tags to make your configuration/code/etc. more readable.

paranoid::log::syslog

Paranoid::Log::Syslog(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				Paranoid::Log::Syslog(3pm)

NAME

       Paranoid::Log::Syslog - Log Facility Syslog

VERSION

       $Id: Syslog.pm,v 0.83 2010/06/03 19:04:07 acorliss Exp $

SYNOPSIS

	 use Paranoid::Log;

	 enableFacility('local3', 'syslog', 'debug', '+');
	 enableFacility('local3', 'syslog', 'debug', '+', 'my-daemon');

DESCRIPTION

       This module implements UNIX syslog support for logging purposes.  Which should seem natural given that the entire Paranoid::Log API is
       modeled closely after it.

SUBROUTINES
/METHODS
       NOTE:  Given that this module is not intended to be used directly nothing is exported.

   init
   log
   remove
   dump
DEPENDENCIES

       o   Paranoid::Debug

       o   Unix::Syslog

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS

       Because we're keeping a connection to the syslogger open we don't support enabling multiple facilities that log as different idents, etc.
       The first syslog facility that gets activated will set those parameters.
