Cannot send syslog event from AIX 6.1 to RHEL Syslog server
Hi everyone,
I am trying to configure AIX 6.1 using syslogd to send syslog event to syslog server configured on RHEL. However, RHEL never receives the events.
I have tried to redirect the syslog event on AIX to a local file and successful. Only forwarding to remote server fails.
Firewall between these servers are opened and allowed connection through.
I have tried to check the /var/log/messages but could not find any useful information.
Can anyone give me an advice for this situation?
Thank you in advances.
Regards,
Michael

syslog
SYSLOG(8) System Logging SYSLOG(8)
NAME
syslog-ng, syslogd
DESCRIPTION
There are different syslog daemon implementations supported as the system's syslog service, currently syslogd, syslog-ng and rsyslogd
The first installed daemon activates itself for the syslog service. Starting with openSUSE-11.2, it is rsyslogd, before it was syslog-ng.
But this depends on the software selection during the installation.
The name of the daemon used as syslog service is specified in the
SYSLOG_DAEMON variable in /etc/sysconfig/syslog.
The yast2 sysconfig module provides a comfortable way to switch to another installed daemon and restart the service.
The /etc/init.d/syslog init script is able to handle all supported daemons.
