Problem with logging detail-log to syslog

2007-05-23 Thread Mark van Herpen 
Hello,

I want to log all the freeradius (v 1.1.3) logs to syslog (syslog-ng).
I 've already added this to my syslog-ng.conf :

  filter f_radiusd { match (radiusd); };
  destination radiuslogs { file(var/log/radiusd.log); };
  log { source (src); filter(f_daemon); filter(f_radiusd); 
destination(radiuslogs);};

And I changed/added this in my radiusd.conf :

  logdir = syslog
  log_destination = syslog

So far so good: when I restart syslog-ng and radiusd, radiusd is logging 
to /var/log/radiusd.log via syslog. But I also want to have the 
detail-logs, which are normaly in the raddact directory, working in 
syslog... Now I see this error in /var/log/radiusd.log :

  rlm_detail: Failed to create directory syslog/radacct: No such file or 
directory

So the rlm_detail part doesn't understands the 'logdir = syslog' option 
in radiusd.conf I guess? How can I fix this?

Thanks in advance

LOGDIR means... log dir :

Claudiu,

I know what logdir means :)

But according to the Syslog_Howto from the wiki, 
http://wiki.freeradius.org/Syslog_HOWTO :

 
Modify /etc/raddb/radiusd.conf:

logdir = syslog
log_destination = syslog

Because of the logdir entry above, you must locate all references to 
${logdir}, comment the line out and replace it with an absolute path. 
There must be better ways to do this, but it isn't immediatedly obvious.


So, I didn't find out that logdir part myself. The wiki also mentions 
that I have to replace all ${logdir} values with an absolute path. But I 
don't want that, because syslog has to take care that part.

Grtz,

Hi Mark,



it seems that you forgot a line with
   radacctdir = ${logdir}/radacct

if you have no line with radacctdir, then add one with the correct
path.



best regards,
