Are you using syslogd or rsyslogd? For syslogd, you add "-r' to the SYSLOGD_OPTIONS in /etc/sysconfig/syslog.
For rsyslogd you need to uncomment the following lines in rsyslogd.conf
and add list of permitted hosts e.g.
You also need to open up any firewall that is in place on the log server for 514/UDP.
Hi all
I have a RedHat Linux AS2.1 server that keep crashing/rebooting and there are no messages in the /var/log/messages file pointing to any problems. I had a look at the /etc/syslog.conf file to see what gets logged to /var/log/messages, but I don't know what else to add. Can anyone tell me... (1 Reply)
Has anyone here configured a central syslog server using syslog-ng ?
I have set one up and I'm trying to tune the syslog-ng.conf file, both for the server and the client. I have found lots of linux example files, but not much on Solaris which is slightly different.
So if you have a Solaris... (5 Replies)

cgrulesengd
CGRULESENGD(8) libcgroup Manual CGRULESENGD(8)NAME
cgrulesengd - control group rules daemon
SYNOPSIS
cgrulesengd [options]
DESCRIPTION
cgrulesengd is a daemon, which distributes processes to control groups. When any process changes its effective UID or GID, cgrulesengd
inspects the list of rules loaded from the cgrules.conf file and moves the process to the appropriate control group.
The list of rules is read during the daemon startup is are cached in the daemon's memory. The daemon reloads the list of rules when it
receives SIGUSR2 signal.
The daemon opens a standard unix socket to receive 'sticky' requests from cgexec.
OPTIONS
-h|--help
Display help.
-f <path>|--logfile=<path>
Write log messages to the given log file. When '-' is used as <path>, log messages are written to the standard output. If '-f' and
'-s' are used together, the logs are sent to both destinations.
-s[facility]|--syslog=[facility]
Write log messages to syslog. The default facility is DAEMON. If '-f' and '-s' are used together, the logs are sent to both destina-
tions.
-n|--nodaemon
Don't fork the daemon, stay in the foreground.
-v|--verbose
Display more log messages. This option can be used twice to enable more verbose log messages.
-q|--quiet
Display less log messages. This option can be used twice to enable even less log messages and to only log errors.
-Q|--nolog
Disable logging.
-d|--debug
Equivalent to '-nvvf -', i.e. don't fork the daemon, display all log messages and write them to the standard output.
-u <user>|--socket-user=<user>
-g <group>|--socket-group=<group> Set the owner of cgrulesengd socket. Assumes that cgexec runs with proper suid permissions so it
can write to the socket when cgexec --sticky is used.
