-<html><head><title>Examples - rsyslog.conf</title></head>
-<body>
-<p>This is a part of the rsyslog.conf documentation.</p>
-<a href="rsyslog_conf.html">back</a>
-<h2>Examples</h2>
-<p>Below are example for templates and selector lines. I hope
-they are self-explanatory. If not, please see
-www.monitorware.com/rsyslog/ for advise.</p>
-<h3>TEMPLATES</h3>
-<p>Please note that the samples are split across multiple lines.
-A template MUST NOT actually be split across multiple lines.<br>
-<br>
-A template that resembles traditional syslogd file output:<br>
-$template TraditionalFormat,"%timegenerated% %HOSTNAME%<br>
-%syslogtag%%msg:::drop-last-lf%\n"<br>
-<br>
-A template that tells you a little more about the message:<br>
-$template
-precise,"%syslogpriority%,%syslogfacility%,%timegenerated%,%HOSTNAME%,<br>
-%syslogtag%,%msg%\n"<br>
-<br>
-A template for RFC 3164 format:<br>
-$template RFC3164fmt,"&lt;%PRI%&gt;%TIMESTAMP% %HOSTNAME%
-%syslogtag%%msg%"<br>
-<br>
-A template for the format traditonally used for user messages:<br>
-$template usermsg," XXXX%syslogtag%%msg%\n\r"<br>
-<br>
-And a template with the traditonal wall-message format:<br>
-$template wallmsg,"\r\n\7Message from syslogd@%HOSTNAME% at
-%timegenerated%<br>
-<br>
-A template that can be used for the database write (please note the SQL<br>
-template option)<br>
-$template MySQLInsert,"insert iut, message, receivedat values<br>
-('%iut%', '%msg:::UPPERCASE%', '%timegenerated:::date-mysql%')<br>
-into systemevents\r\n", SQL<br>
-<br>
-The following template emulates <a href="http://www.winsyslog.com/en/">WinSyslog</a>
-format (it's an <a href="http://www.adiscon.com/en/">Adiscon</a>
-format, you do not feel bad if you don't know it ;)). It's interesting
-to see how it takes different parts out of the date stamps. What
-happens is that the date stamp is split into the actual date and time
-and the these two are combined with just a comma in between them.<br>
-<br>
-$template WinSyslogFmt,"%HOSTNAME%,%timegenerated:1:10:date-rfc3339%,<br>
-%timegenerated:12:19:date-rfc3339%,%timegenerated:1:10:date-rfc3339%,<br>
-%timegenerated:12:19:date-rfc3339%,%syslogfacility%,%syslogpriority%,<br>
-%syslogtag%%msg%\n"</p>
-<h3>SELECTOR LINES</h3>
-<p># Store critical stuff in critical<br>
-#<br>
-*.=crit;kern.none /var/adm/critical<br>
-<br>
-This will store all messages with the priority crit in the file
-/var/adm/critical, except for any kernel message.<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-# Kernel messages are first, stored in the kernel<br>
-# file, critical messages and higher ones also go<br>
-# to another host and to the console. Messages to<br>
-# the host finlandia are forwarded in RFC 3164<br>
-# format (using the template defined above).<br>
-#<br>
-kern.* /var/adm/kernel<br>
-kern.crit @finlandia;RFC3164fmt<br>
-kern.crit /dev/console<br>
-kern.info;kern.!err /var/adm/kernel-info<br>
-<br>
-The first rule direct any message that has the kernel facility to the
-file /var/adm/kernel.<br>
-<br>
-The second statement directs all kernel messages of the priority crit
-and higher to the remote host finlandia. This is useful, because if the
-host crashes and the disks get irreparable errors you might not be able
-to read the stored messages. If they're on a remote host, too, you
-still can try to find out the reason for the crash.<br>
-<br>
-The third rule directs these messages to the actual console, so the
-person who works on the machine will get them, too.<br>
-<br>
-The fourth line tells rsyslogd to save all kernel messages that come
-with priorities from info up to warning in the file
-/var/adm/kernel-info. Everything from err and higher is excluded.<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-# The tcp wrapper loggs with mail.info, we display<br>
-# all the connections on tty12<br>
-#<br>
-mail.=info /dev/tty12<br>
-<br>
-This directs all messages that uses mail.info (in source LOG_MAIL |
-LOG_INFO) to /dev/tty12, the 12th console. For example the tcpwrapper
-tcpd(8) uses this as it's default.<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-# Store all mail concerning stuff in a file<br>
-#<br>
-mail.*;mail.!=info /var/adm/mail<br>
-<br>
-This pattern matches all messages that come with the mail facility,
-except for the info priority. These will be stored in the file
-/var/adm/mail.<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-# Log all mail.info and news.info messages to info<br>
-#<br>
-mail,news.=info /var/adm/info<br>
-<br>
-This will extract all messages that come either with mail.info or with
-news.info and store them in the file /var/adm/info.<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-# Log info and notice messages to messages file<br>
-#<br>
-*.=info;*.=notice;\<br>
-mail.none /var/log/messages<br>
-<br>
-This lets rsyslogd log all messages that come with either the info or
-the notice facility into the file /var/log/messages, except for all<br>
-messages that use the mail facility.<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-# Log info messages to messages file<br>
-#<br>
-*.=info;\<br>
-mail,news.none /var/log/messages<br>
-<br>
-This statement causes rsyslogd to log all messages that come with the
-info priority to the file /var/log/messages. But any message coming
-either with the mail or the news facility will not be stored.<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-# Emergency messages will be displayed using wall<br>
-#<br>
-*.=emerg *<br>
-<br>
-This rule tells rsyslogd to write all emergency messages to all
-currently logged in users. This is the wall action.<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-# Messages of the priority alert will be directed<br>
-# to the operator<br>
-#<br>
-*.alert root,rgerhards<br>
-<br>
-This rule directs all messages with a priority of alert or higher to
-the terminals of the operator, i.e. of the users "root'' and
-"rgerhards'' if they're logged in.<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-*.* @finlandia<br>
-<br>
-This rule would redirect all messages to a remote host called
-finlandia. This is useful especially in a cluster of machines where all
-syslog messages will be stored on only one machine.<br>
-<br>
-In the format shown above, UDP is used for transmitting the message.
-The destination port is set to the default auf 514. Rsyslog is also
-capable of using much more secure and reliable TCP sessions for message
-forwarding. Also, the destination port can be specified. To select TCP,
-simply add one additional @ in front of the host name (that is, @host
-is UPD, @@host is TCP). For example:<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-*.* @@finlandia<br>
-<br>
-To specify the destination port on the remote machine, use a colon
-followed by the port number after the machine name. The following
-forwards to port 1514 on finlandia:<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-*.* @@finlandia:1514<br>
-<br>
-This syntax works both with TCP and UDP based syslog. However, you will
-probably primarily need it for TCP, as there is no well-accepted port
-for this transport (it is non-standard). For UDP, you can usually stick
-with the default auf 514, but might want to modify it for security rea-<br>
-sons. If you would like to do that, it's quite easy:<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-*.* @finlandia:1514<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-<br>
-*.* &gt;dbhost,dbname,dbuser,dbpassword;dbtemplate<br>
-<br>
-This rule writes all message to the database "dbname" hosted on
-"dbhost". The login is done with user "dbuser" and password
-"dbpassword". The actual table that is updated is specified within the
-template (which contains the insert statement). The template is called
-"dbtemplate" in this case.</p>
-<p>:msg,contains,"error" @errorServer</p>
-<p>This rule forwards all messages that contain the word "error"
-in the msg part to the server "errorServer". Forwarding is via UDP.
-Please note the colon in fron</p>
