Enable remote logging (syslog) in 10.5
It's been a while since this was posted, but I just worked on getting my new router to use syslogd on 10.5. I had to do the steps shown below. Many of these steps are duplicates of the ones above, but the original title for this hint covered 10.4, and I figured someone searching for info about 10.5 would find it more easily if it's all in one place.

Oh, so close, xr4ti.

Facility security (13), Severity info (6) so my guess that my D-Link router is naming its syslog facility "security" but it is still not writing to the router.log file even after editing the syslog.config to point security.* to /var/logs/router.log.Try remoteauth.* instead of security.*. I recently had the same trouble routing my D-Link log to a Tiger machine. Rather than "security," Wireshark reports: Facility: LOGAUDIT - log audit (13) and Level INFO - informational (6) so like you I was trying logaudit.* and audit.*, etc. If you look at /usr/include/sys/syslog.h you can see how the numbers (13 in this case) map into the facility text codes (remoteauth).

I have a netgear router that I'm trying to pull in its logs to a snow leopard blackbook. All the basics are working, but I have a little bit of wonkiness that I'm not sure how to fix. |
