Cool, thanks :)
Welcome.
Either way, thanks for your help, I'll give it a shot when I have some time and hopefully it'll get things filtered out :)
I had to play quite a bit with syslog, so I read some docs and try many things. Meaning, I had to bump my head into the wal many times ;-) Hint: If rsyslog does not restart after a change, try manually (as root): rsyslogd -n Other interesting options would be: -d Turns on debug mode. Using this the daemon will not proceed a fork(2) to set itself in the back- ground, but opposite to that stay in the foreground and write much debug information on the current tty. See the DEBUGGING section for more information. -N level Do a coNfig check. Do NOT run in regular mode, just check configu- ration file correctness. This option is meant to verify a config file. To do so, run rsyslogd interactively in foreground, spec- ifying -f <config-file> and -N level. The level argument modi- fies behaviour. Currently, 0 is the same as not specifying the -N option at all (so this makes lim- ited sense) and 1 actually acti- vates the code. Later, higher lev- els will mean more verbosity (this is a forward-compatibility option). rsyslogd is started and controlled by init(8). I have not tried this, but you could have an auxiliary config file, on which you do changes, and then do the check on it without restarting the working rsyslog daemon. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
