happy lunar new year to all of you
i am just getting back from vacation.
I have checked with firewall team and it is getting open as expected. And syslog events still disappear on Syslog server.
I have tried to use tcpdump on AIX system and see that there is no packet sent from this AIX to Syslog server. the command i have used is:
tcpdump -vv dst host <Syslog server>
There is one point that I am quite confuse: this server is operation behind a NAT. Does this affect to syslog operation?
The second thought is that the config file is getting wrong. Once i issued the command
startsrc -s syslog, it say that the subsystem has started completed successfully along with syslogd PID.
however, i have read some posts and it say: The syslog.conf file MUST be configured with TAB, not space as space will be considered as a comment in syslog.conf. Is that true?
I have put space at the beginning and changed to TAB today. is there any way if i can check there is any space still left in the config file?
Really appreciate for your help.
Regards,
Michael.
