 |
|
| I am trying to figure out how to make sysklogd allow logging from a remote system. The man page says I have to use the -r command line option, but I can't figure out how to add it to the rc script. I tried just adding it to the line, but start-stop-daemon threw an error. How can I make it so that syslogd runs with remote logging enabled? |

edit /etc/conf.d/sysklogd to look something like the following:
| Code: | # Config file for /etc/init.d/sysklogd
SYSLOGD="-m 0 -r"
# send warnings and above to the console
KLOGD="-c 3 -2" |
The "SYSLOGD" line is where you append the necessary command line options.
For more info on how Gentoo uses and manages rc-scripts, you should check out the Gentoo Linux 1.0 init system.
