Remotelogging with systemd journald - how to use ksystemlog with?

Hello all

no all us servers running on systemd

so we would like to use journald also for remotelogging. And yes we have configured that and it is running fine. We have configured the first 3 servers to send logs to central journaldservice with https and certificate. So on the server it is easy to say:

Code:

journalctl --file remote-2001:470:1f0c:568:201:8eff:ff28:d16e.journal -f

But with a lot of IP's this is not very handy.

So we searching vor a GUI/Interface. The only one program that we found that journald is supported is ksystemlog. There i can enter remoteconnection. But i can't set some auth there. How the program connect? If i do the connection the programm say connected, but the logs in the program are emty.

I think that can't be so easy to connect, because that would be an security issue. So how i must conncect to the remote journald Server?

Here are the serverconfigs:

Code:

cat /etc/systemd/journal-remote.conf
[Remote]
# Seal=false
# SplitMode=host

ServerKeyFile=/etc/ssl/private-journal-remote/journal-remote.pem
ServerCertificateFile=/etc/ssl/certs/journal-remote.pem
TrustedCertificateFile=/etc/ssl/ca/trusted.pem[/ICODE]


[ICODE]cat /etc/systemd/system/systemd-journal-remote.service
