-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm trying to log kernel messages on another machine to log a possible kernel crash. I got this working about two months ago on these same machines, running 13.1, but now it fails. On the receiving machine I run as root: netcat -u -l 6666 | tee -a remote_log On sending machine I do, for testing: netcat -u 192.168.1.15 6666 Hello world ^C And it is duly printed on the other side. So far, so good. I verify remote machine data: # ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:03:0D:05:17:FC inet addr:192.168.1.15 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 ... Now I do: modprobe netconsole cd /sys/kernel/config/netconsole/ mkdir target1 cd target1/ echo "00:03:0D:05:17:FC" > remote_mac echo 6666 > remote_port echo 192.168.1.15 > remote_ip cat dev_name echo 1 > enabled I get this response in the log, verifiying that it is enabled: <0.6> 2016-01-22 04:42:57 Telcontar kernel - - - [191845.722453] console [netcon0] enabled <0.6> 2016-01-22 04:42:57 Telcontar kernel - - - [191845.722456] netconsole: network logging started <0.6> 2016-01-22 04:43:05 Telcontar kernel - - - [191854.577279] netpoll: netconsole: local port 6665 <0.6> 2016-01-22 04:43:05 Telcontar kernel - - - [191854.577283] netpoll: netconsole: local IPv4 address 0.0.0.0 <0.6> 2016-01-22 04:43:05 Telcontar kernel - - - [191854.577284] netpoll: netconsole: interface 'eth0' <0.6> 2016-01-22 04:43:05 Telcontar kernel - - - [191854.577285] netpoll: netconsole: remote port 6666 <0.6> 2016-01-22 04:43:05 Telcontar kernel - - - [191854.577287] netpoll: netconsole: remote IPv4 address 192.168.1.15 <0.6> 2016-01-22 04:43:05 Telcontar kernel - - - [191854.577288] netpoll: netconsole: remote ethernet address 00:03:0d:05:17:fc <0.6> 2016-01-22 04:43:05 Telcontar kernel - - - [191854.577291] netpoll: netconsole: local IP 192.168.1.14 <0.6> 2016-01-22 04:43:05 Telcontar kernel - - - [191854.577293] netconsole: network logging started Then I cause an event, like plugin in/out an USB stick, to cause messages to be printed - but nothing gets on the remote. Why? I must have done something wrong, but I can't see it. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.
