Using EELS

Customizing the destination host

To customize remote logging on the destination host:

  1. Log in as root.

  2. Edit /etc/default/eels, and create a new accept-remote parameter block containing the name of the originating host that will be sending the messages and a log destination where to place the messages. For example, if the originating host had an IP address of 192.168.24.87, the resulting accept-remote block could look like this:
       accept-remote origin_1 {
           hostname     192.168.24.87;
           destination  default
       }
    

  3. Save the changes made to /etc/default/eels.

  4. Restart EELS on the destination host by entering the following command:

    /etc/init.d/eelsrc restart

  5. Restart EELS on the originating host by using the same command as in step 4.
Remote logging should now be fully customized and running. To check that messages are being logged correctly, use eels_db_query(1Meels) to query the database on the destination host.
