This module allows an administrator to view the contents of the syslog for a particular system/systems.
It supports, inter alia:
- Sorting the displayed logs by date, program, host, facility and severity
- Filtering the displayed logs by program, host, facility and severity
The module itself does not actually get the logs from the syslog and put them into the database, this must be done separately, i.e. with rsyslog.
Caveat Emptor: currently this module supports exactly one database schema - the one I use. Work will be under way when I have the time to generalise this.
Since the module merely displays what the syslog dæmon stores in the database, it can automatically deal with logs from multiple hosts. Similarly, if it is desired that certain syslog entries, e.g. authpriv, do not get logged to the database it is only necessary to configure the syslog dæmon not to log them to the database.
I have only tested this module with rsyslogd, though I can not see any reason why syslog-ng shouldn't work.
