rsyslog sending iptables to new file =)

Hello,
Just updated to Fedora 10.
The syslog was changed to rsyslog, which sounds great, the ability to use rules to send certain messages to a new location (local/remote).

Originally for iptables I set the level, and then on syslog.conf put that level to log to iptables.log. Not the perfect thing as other stuff went into that log file as well.

But rsyslog supposedly can filter, yet my rules are not working, they cease to log at all. Tried a bunch of stuff like:


Anyone got rsyslog conf working to filter messages?

Ok got it solved for anyone else wanting to separate log files.

Hello dyfrin,

fantastic! - This was EXACTLY what i was looking for, after setting up a new ubuntu system which gets shipped with rsyslog

Many thanks for replying to yourself
