VSphere ESXi 5 - point syslogging to Kiwi SysLog Server 9.2
We have several server ESXi 4.1 pointing to a Kiwi Syslog server v9.2.
All point their 5 Kiwi Syslog server ESXi vSphere servers? Any help on this is appreciated.
Can't seem to point ESXi correctly because the settings all look different.
Thank you
Changing the syslog settings don't automatically open Firewall ports. You will need to go to the screen of the security profile to do so.

Logging, vMA or Syslog server ESXi + Splunk?
Hi guys,.
I would like to know what is the best and the most used method for recording the events of ESXi? using vMA or (syslog server + splunk)?
because I had a bad experience at the mysterious host restart ESXi and the journal of diagnosis seem to be continuous logging :-| (eg. only available for events after the system reboot) cmiiw.
Kind regards
AWT
Select the host, and then go to Configuration > Softare > advanced settings. Navigate to the bottom of the list in syslog and open. The change takes effect immediately.

transmit vcenter newspapers (not the vcenter) central syslog server
Hello
is there a way to transmit all headlines associated with an external syslog server vcenter? already, my whole army to esxi connect to this syslog server.
Thank you uxmax
The title of your son is in contradiction with what you are trying to accomplish. It is not a default path to transmit the vCenter real server logs to syslog server external without writing some logic/scripts to essentially scrap logs and passes them to the wide. If you use the new vCenter Linux Appliance (vSphere 5), you can do it too but not on a Windows system, at least out of the box which is supported. It can be that you had to buy a part 3 for Windows application see if it can extract the application logs.

Build / / need a syslog server
Anyone using a syslog server to capture Standalone ESXi host newspapers? I have a cuople stand-alone ESXi 4.x hosts and must start collecting newspapers because we went haywire on me this weekend.
So my question is, what products do you use for syslogging? A free one is better but not necessary.
It is true that I have never created a simpler product, as for "Dummies", would be so probably ideal.
Thank you
Kiwi is a great service, it is highly recommended and now is strongly recommended

My station have dual boot, Red Hat 8.0 and Windows2K.
How can I configure my Redhat 8.0 syslog server to receive my routers ACL logs?
When I use a syslog with Windows2K server software Kiwi, my machine to receive the newspaper ok.
Thks,
Paulo
I'm no expert, RedHat, but if it works the same as the Unix standard (that I tink, it does), you must change your file/etc/syslog.conf and direct specific syslog events in a specific file.
Syslog events from a default router are sent using the local7 facility, so if you do something like:
ADM local7.*
(Note there is a TAB between the installation type and directory in this file) then your syslogs must be logged to this file. You need to stop/start the syslog server on the machine after making the change.

Enable syslog server behind the PIX
Could someone tell me a config that allows a server syslog (Kiwi syslog) to get behind the PIX syslogs. I have a 2K with the KIWI syslog server behind a PIX 501.
I have the static command, the access group and the access-list:
public static 192.104.109.92 (Interior, exterior) 192.168.15.200 netmask 255.255.255.255 0 0
Access-group local_server in external interface
local_server list access permit udp any host 192.104.109.92 eq syslog
Man, I can't understand it.
Thanks for any help
You could:
1. make a capture of port syslog traffic directed to the syslog server.
2 Terminal monitor - deny traffic showed clearly when I had not set up the firewall to forward the traffic. (Note: attention on busy firewall)
3 netstat - a on the syslog server
4. If you allow, you should be able to portscan the server on port of syslog by your firewall.
5. is your syslog capture created file? It is not created if the service never started.
6 - is the service running in the system context or perhaps another account that doesn't have the correct rights?
The answers seem to indicate a service not started that seemed likely. What you describe happened to me when I had the demon also version; I went to service version and the problem has been resolved (once I opened the port.)
I love the kiwi syslog. I use with Snare and BacklogIIS and receive alerts within 60 seconds to my mailbox when something bad happens. It always fools of my end users out when I call them with the problem solved when they seek always my number report the problem.

Hello
I want that my TMS pointing to the syslog server server, how to proceed?
I just checked the MSDS and even our TMS admin guides. None of them mentions the possibility of using a syslog server, so it seems that this is not possible, unless there is another way to do that is not documented or within the TMS web interface.
If it's something you'd like to really see included, suggest you to contact your Cisco account manager and file a feature request.

New here - problem with the network on vSphere, ESXi
Not sure if this is the right place to post this, please direct me properly if it is not.
I use an eval of vSphere ESXi on a HP workstation. I built 2 Windows 2 k 8 VM 32 bits on the first data store. They can ping and DNS seems to be resolved, but they cannot access Internet/WWW.
I accepted the default when installing ESXi and vSphere, so the configuration of the network is all that is by default (using the switch vNetwork, I think?)
The 2 servers are on a different area of our production area. For this case, we'll call it consigment and Lab.com. "PDC" server is the domain controller, 'Exch8' is the exchange server in the lab. Exch8 has its pointed DNS, PDC and PDC has its DNS indicated on our DNS server in the environment of consigment. They are all on the same subnet 172.1.1.x
I can ping PDC and Exch8 of my workstation (which is in consigment) by IP, but not name (pdc or pdc.lab.com, or work).
Can someone at - it facilitate troubleshooting?
Thank you
OK finally try this out... It must be something to deal with the configuraiton of windows rather than dealing with VMware.I belive
1. on the server you can navigate on the internet - see the proxy setting.
See how proxy setting - open internet explore - switch to the option internet tool - connection tab click lan setting and get the configuraiton of proxy and put it in the PDC. Lab.com server and see if it works...
2. also if you have installed antivirus tools on the server that you are not able to browse internet but able to ping... Uninstall AV and try...

I type grpparams syslog-server-list x.x.x.x:yyy

Write syslog to ASA 5505 VPN tunnel on syslog server?
Hello
Is it possible to let the ASA 5505 write syslog messages to a syslog server on the core network where the ASA 5550 is? (on the ipsec tunnel?)
I tried this. The tunnel is up, but I get the message from routing could not locate the next hop for the NP (ASA 5505 ip) udp inside: (ip of the syslog server).
THX,
Marc
MJonkers,
I would suggest that you configure inside interface as the interface for management access. Include IP and IP address NAT syslog server interface inside 0 ACL and ACL crypto.
You can order the "access management" when you want to run an ASA inside of interface through the VPN 7.2 below command reference:
http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/customer/docs/security/ASA/asa72/command/reference/m_72.html#wp1780826
I am running the VPN configuration on 8.2 and querying SNMP works.
I hope this helps.
Thank you
