Oh! selinux (slap to forehead). Hadn't considered that. I've run into issues with it before, so good call. I'll see what I can figure out there. I'll be back in touch in a bit. Thanks!
One of the clients I want to monitor is a web server with a pretty heavy amount of logging. From what I've read, I will run the risk of losing messages from it or other clients that are trying to communicate at the same time. I'm hoping that RELP will mitigate that risk. I'm not too worried about losing web service messages, but my luck guarantees that an important log entry would be lost while an unimportant entry will always get through. ---------------------------------------- > From: denverpi...@me.com > Date: Tue, 19 Feb 2013 08:25:27 -0700 > To: centos@centos.org > Subject: Re: [CentOS] remote logging with rsyslog > > > On Feb 19, 2013, at 8:16 AM, Nelson Green <nelsongree...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > > I can change things around so that tcp is used instead of RELP, and > > everything > > works that way.
