The syslog daemon on the machine where BIND runs on will send the
syslog messages to the central syslog server. So you need to
configure your syslog.conf file to send the facility that BIND
uses, normaly daemon, to the remote syslog server.<br>
<br>
The syslog.conf on Solaris looks something like this:<br>
# logging to remote syslog server<br>
daemon.info @syslog.domain.com<br>
# send to local file on server<br>
daemon.info /var/log/messages<br>
<br>
Hope this helps.<br>
<br>

Hi<br>
<br>
I was considering to use the syslog on a different host for
logging from bind. The purpose was to collect logs from various
places into one repository.<br>
<br>
This is not a busy installation so performance is not expected to
be a problem.<br>
<br>
I looked in the arm but could not see where I could put the
IP/hostname of the host to receive the syslog.<br>
<br>
Question:<br>
Can bind send its logging output to an external syslog?<br>
If it can, what is needed in terms of version etc.? How to put
this into log statement?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance.<br>
