Package: rsyslog Version: 3.18.6-3 Severity: normal Looks like fresh lenny installs come with rsyslog instead of old syslogd.
In our network, logs from all hosts are sent to one server, called loghost, using remote logging. There, logs are checked by logcheck. Most of the net, including loghost, currently runs etch. But there are several new hosts with lenny. On these hosts, I've added this to /etc/rsyslogd.conf: # Send all logs to loghost *.* @loghost.lvknet This works, however on loghost (running syslogd from etch), all lines got from lenny hosts have hostname doubled: Jan 22 19:20:22 buki.lvknet buki /USR/SBIN/CRON[31333]: (root) CMD (cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly) Here, hostname (buki) is written twice. This is not good, since that breaks all logcheck rules that come from various packages. Btw, in local log files, hostname is not doubled. Any possibility to make rsyslogd not to double hostname when sending logs to remote? -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (620, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable'), (580, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-xen-686 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
