Marcelo, Thank you for the help earlier. Now I have another question. I kept the first rules and now. I want to add a rule of sorts.
When rsyslog receives upd traffic it not only is adding it to my /var/log/messages file but also to the /var/log/hosts/<hostname>/messages file as well. Is there a way for it to NOT log to the /var/log/messages and ONLY to the /var/log/hosts/<hostname>/messages? -----Original Message----- From: rsyslog-boun...@lists.adiscon.com [mailto:rsyslog-boun...@lists.adiscon.com] On Behalf Of Marcelo Veglienzone Sent: Wednesday, April 03, 2013 12:30 PM To: rsyslog-users Subject: Re: [rsyslog] Allocating certain logs to certain files In that case you only need one rule, something like this should work 1. if \ 2. $source != 'loghost.example.com' \ 3. then *.* ?DYNlogfile On Wed, Apr 3, 2013 at 4:23 PM, Josh Bitto <jbi...@onlineschool.ca> wrote: > Oh ok thank you!
