Hello, every time I restart rsyslog, it tries to open network socket on my main interface eth0 and on 127.0.1.1
I assume this is to resolve my hostname ? I have added all IPs to /etc/hosts, so that rsyslog does not need to resolve any hostnames 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 myhost 1.2.3.4 myhost # eth0 10.1.1.1 myhost-v1 # eth1 10.1.2.1 myhost-v2 # eth2 where 1.2.3.4 is substituted for my real IP. I have my reasons why this bothers me, by I think these are not relevant to this discussion. I can explain in more detail if necessary. Q: can I tell rsyslog to not use network sockets at all, and only act as local daemon? I also have "$PreserveFQDN on" in my /etc/rsyslog.conf many thanks, _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list https://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
