Hi, I tried your all steps: 1. I have disabled firewalls on all systems. 2. I am also able to send message through *nc *and* telnet*. In My Opinion, syslog is working fine. As even if I log messages on client, they export to rSyslog server as per configuration. For ex, my client(snort machine) is 172.20.54.211 and server is 172.20.54.213 (rSyslog server) If I send some message to 172.20.54.211, it will appear in syslog of rSyslog server. 3. I have also added line to /etc/rsyslog.conf * *.* @ 172.20.54.213:514* still not getting alerts in syslog of remote log server. The thing I noticed: When I restart snort from command line, I am *not seeing message *"unrecognized syslog facility/priority: host=172.20.54.213:514," * in server syslog.* If I run snort in NIDS mode, it gives error in the same snort console, "unrecognized syslog facility/priority: host=172.20.54.213:514," Now what are the next steps please help ?? I am attaching snort and rsyslog conf files. Seeking for the guidance, Thanks !! * -- * *Cheers, * *Mayur* On Fri, Sep 6, 2013 at 9:13 PM, praveen_recker . <praveen_recker () sify com>wrote:
Hi Mayur, On Snort(172.20.54.211) setup add Modify syslog configuration file /etc/rsyslog.conf by adding line *.* @172.20.54.213:514 I am not sure what is the use of "172.20.54.212 - other client". Your Snort (172.20.54.211) setup will act as client and machine with syslog acts as Server(172.20.54.213).
