Below is a description of a syslog configuration. I do not have syslog.conf. How do I do that in SuSE 10.1 ??? Syslog Configuration Next, modify your syslog.conf (should be in /etc/syslog.conf), and add this line: # OpenSER messages, make sure this spacing is done with tabs, spaces may cause errors local7.*; -/var/log/openser * |Note: that on Solaris 9 (and maybe other systems), the asterisk (*) is NOT a Priority Level ONLY a Source Facility - which means it can only be used on the left, and not the right of the period (.). In such a case, this equivalent line will also cause all messages to be logged (”debug” and higher priorities, “debug” is the lowest priority):| local7.debug -/var/log/openser * /|Source: Source Facilities VS. Priority Levels, page 267; Darrell Ambro - Solaris System Administration|/ Create the log file: touch /var/log/openser Now, in OpenSER, to do some custom logging within your route (it will still catch all regular output from OpenSER, of course), I like to use xlog. Regular log will work, too.
