Customizing the destination host
To customize remote logging on the destination host:
-
Log in as root.
-
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
}
-
Save the changes made to /etc/default/eels.
-
Restart EELS on the destination host
by entering the following command:
/etc/init.d/eelsrc restart
-
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.
