Linksys "Send log to:" support in Leopard?

Is there any way to get a Linksys router log capured by OS X? I can "Send log to:" my IP address, but how can I get it captured? Kiwi Syslog Daemon is a Windows only application; if there were a Mac equivalent I could use KiwiLogViewer-OSX to see the Linksys data. Thanks for any ideas.

Yes, that is exactly the purpose of syslogd.conf.
The syslog protocol has what is called 'log levels' and then severity levels. You can use these values to filter off things to different files.
So for instance, if you configured your router to send syslog data as local7.crit, you can either filter that off to a critical file or just do local7.* to send all traffic on that level to another file.
The configuration of syslog hasn't changed in AGES. Starting it by default, I agree, is going to be different in Leopard. However, manually getting it to function is the first step before automating its startup.
Since it's already running, you'll want to kill syslogd (sudo killall syslogd) and then restart it with the necessary parameters to start listening on the network.
netstat -anp udp | grep 514
... will tell you if it's listening on the network or not. When that command returns data (probably say udp4 0 0 *.514) you then then try hitting it from your remote device.

Have To Enter Password Twice to Log In to Snow Leopard on my iMac

*Why Do I Have To Enter My Password Twice to Log In to Snow Leopard on my iMac?*
It just started happening a couple of weeks ago but I have no idea what I changed at that point.
There's a normal login screen where you can choose a user and enter a password. Then it goes to a completely blank screen for a few seconds and the same login scree reappears and I have to choose the user and enter the password again. Then it logs in.
What is going on? HOw do I fix it?
(please note that I do not want automatic login to one of the user accounts - I want to use this as a protection against access to my computer should someone steal it etc...)
Thanks

What do you mean a "more fuller update" from software update? Do you mean the updates I automatically get from apple software update are not actually the latest snow leopard updates? I'm very confused.
No that is not what I was saying. Read all about the Snow Leopard combo update for yourself - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1324
they're generally pretty useless and typically solve most problems by saying to reinstall everything.
That has never been my experience with Apple Care the few times I have used it.
This may be a user forum, but I'm pretty confident there are Apple staff helping people out on here.
Not the case here. Hate to bust your confident bubble. These forums are strictly user to user.
"Apple staff" do chime in from time to time in the Feedback forum area if you are having problems with the discussion website. Never for technical issues. Read the Terms Of Use.

How can I keep my MacBook safe is Apple is no longer supporting Snow Leopard? My MacBook was purchased in 2006 and cannot be upgraded to the newer operating systems.

I have a MacBook which I purchased in 2006. It cannot upgrade to newer operating systems.Since Apple has stopped support to Snow Leopard, how can I keep my MacBook safe? Buying another computer is not an option. Any ideas or suggestions? Many thanks.

Apple still sell, and therefore support, Snow Leopard.
For what it's worth, from my reading of the Snow Leopard EULA (and I would assume that there is similar language in the EULAs for all other operating systems, as well), I'm not seeing any obligation on the part of Apple to provide Security Updates of any kind, period/full stop. The wording appears to be completely "use at your own risk." I have no idea whether this "use at your own risk" would survive a legal challenge, or if such a legal challenge would depend on whether or not Apple is still selling (or even giving away for free) an OS, or whether local law would, according to this, override the EULA. Perhaps this is why Apple never formally announces EOL or discontinuance of support for an OS. They can always claim that they are still supporting an OS, whether or not in any practical sense, they are. There was even a very late Flashback detection and removal script which Apple issued for 10.5 well after it was clear that they had stopped supporting Leopard. This hardly constituted ongoing support, but perhaps it was to deter the threat of legal action, or maybe it was simply out of benevolence. I don't know.
Besides that, even when Apple was still actively "supporting" Snow Leopard, which I don't think it is any longer, "use at your own risk" would still have applied to a case where Apple may have been late with a patch, or a response, or an adequate response, to a zero-day threat, such as Flashback was, which was constantly evolving. Many thousands were affected by that, and, to my knowledge, at least, there was no legal action directed at Apple throughout or after that episode. If there was any, I don't think it succeeded.

Sending log data to two different files using log4j

Hi,
Can some one please help me with my problem I have here?
I want to send log data to two diffrent files depending on the logging level such as DEBUG and WARN.
How can you configure this in log4j.properties.
Please post sample code for log4j.properties to achieve this.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Finally, I found the solution to this problem my self.
What you need to do is define two loggers in the application, and set two priority levels to these loggers and define two out put files to these loggers. Deploy the war file, restart application server and you are good to go.
This seems to be working for me. Only glitch I found is, the out put in
the second file is displaying one space character at the start of line starting from second line (First line don't have this problem). This is odd. It may be because of my faulty code. Any how thanks for you all.

Does A2DP support in leopard mean A2DP driver for Vista on MBP?

Would love to have A2DP bluetooth support for my MBP, and I know it's coming next month. Also next month in leopard is the official release of Boot camp and therefore I should imagine a full bunch of windows drivers for the MBP. My question is, if they are bunging A2DP support into leopard do you think the bluetooth drivers written for windows will also include it? I mainly run Vista on my MBP (not out of choice, but you try getting Visual Studio to run on OSX).

The Nokia 301 supports A2DP 1.2

Sending Logs to Multiple Syslog Servers

Hi Team ,
is it doable to send log messages recorded on various cisco devices to multiple syslog servers by discriminating the severity level ?, for example I want to send all the critical and alerts logs to x.x.x.x server, but for other severities, I want to send the logs to y.y.y.y server.
Thanks.

Sending log files for scheduled jobs as attachment through mail

Hi All,
Can any one please help me out to write a pl/sql program to send log files for scheduled jobs as attachment through mail.
Thanks.

Why would anyone do that as this code has already been posted here a thousand times, it is all over the Internet, and the only thing you need to do is to search for it?
I agree it would cost you some effort, but you are getting paid for it, and we are not getting paid for delivering it on a golden plate on your doorstep, as you can not be bothered to use online resources.

Post Script Drivers no longer supported in Leopard OS X 10.5

I recently upgraded my Mac system to Leopard OS 10.5. I came to learn that with this upgrade, my Post Script driver for my HP Deskjet 9680 is no longer compatible, nor is it supported (or will be) with an upgrade patch from HP. HP recommends using a 3rd party Post Scrip drive, EFI, but they also don't support the Leopard System.
Can anybody provide recommendations to get my Postscript Illustrator, CS3 documents to print correctly without engaging in tedious, mind-numbing workarounds? Are there up-to-date printers that can be recommended?

Your best bet is to get a computer capable of running the latest version of Mac OS X - Mac OS X Mountain Lion (10.8). This is the most secure option and will allow you to run the latest and greatest Firefox.
That is a pretty crazy suggestion just to update a browser! There is another alternative if you are worried about having an unsupported browser.
You can run TenFourFox whose purpose is to support older Macs.

Support for Leopard 10.5.8

Good day to you, I was wondering why you have decided to opt out from the 10.5.X support of Leopard OS? It is still widely spread and I believe that this call has caused....many potential security problems.

A couple of years late to the party, aren't we?

How to configure IPS 4240 - K9 to send log file to syslog server

I am looking for the commands in how to configure IPS 4240-k9 to send log file to SYSLOG server. If anybody has or came across similer issue please advice.
Thanks in advanced.

Ali -
I am sorry to tell you, but the Cisco IPS Sensors do not send Syslog messages. Your only options for sending signature event information are:
SDEE (an TLS Encrypted XML formatted message) the sensor is the SDEE Host and your event receiver (MARS, IME, Intelitactics, etc) is the client.
SNMP Traps - You need to set the "Action" on each signature you want the sensor to send a trap.

Cannot use my Apple ID to log into Support Communities

I can't log into support communities using my Apple ID.
I have to log in using an older e-mail address I used when Apple first started cloud-like services MANY YEARS ago.
The e-mail address I have to use is obsolete and I'd just like to abandon its use for support communities.
When I try to log into support communities with my Apple ID the site starts acting like a Microsoft site and keeps redirecting me in loops to the same nonfunctional page.
Weird, I know, that's why I'm writing this.
Why can't I log into support communities with my Apple ID?

glitch du jour - pépin de la journée - pépin de l'heure - pépin de la minute - take your pick
the intermittent nature makes these (possibly unrelated) misbehaviors really hard to diagnose and fix for the coders. I do not not envy their job.
good to see ya again

FFLOGCRT Send Log Report with Critical Transactions Only

Hi ,
I have configured FF (SPM) where in Controllers are getting FF ID login notifications through Emails. Now I have a requirement to stop these notifications and send them only for critical transactions.I have configured critical transactions in table /VIRSA/ZVIRTCODE.
In order to get notifications only for critical transactions I have updated the configuration as below.
CHGLOG Retrieve Change Log     YES
FFAUTH Firefighter Owner Additional Authorization     YES
FFCNTL Firefighter Controller Additional Authorization     YES
FFLOGCRT Send Log Report with Critical Transactions Only     YES
FFLOGIM Send Log Report Execution Notification Immediately     NO
FFLOGNOTI Send Log Report Execution Notification     NO
FFNOTIM Send Firefighter Login Notification Immediately     NO
MAIL Send FirefightId Login Notification     NO
RFC Remote Function Call     LOCAL
My controllers are not getting notified for critical transactions with above config. Please can you suggest where am I going wrong.
SOST/SCOT working fine.
ps: I have gone through the note Note 1065048 - Firefighter Log Not sent in Email to Controller.pdf
Thanks!!

Hi Simon,
I am not using risk analysis and remediation's critical transactions table. My FF (SPM) specific crtitcal transactions are in table
/VIRSA/ZVIRTCODE.
CTRAN Critical Transaction Table from Compliance Calibrator(VRAT)     NO.
I am under impression that table /VIRSA/ZVIRTCODE is used by FF for critical transactions.
Thanks!!

Trouble in Syslog Validation (send log)

I am doing a project to to capture the Syslog from the switches and routers, so for most of devices i can generate the syslog by giving the command " send log" and so that i would receive the same locally as well in the tool.
Note : These devices are in production.
We have a monitoring tool " Stablenet v6.72" i think syslog is also the same(same utility in Stablenet)
The problem iam facing is, for many devices i am not able to give the test command as they are running an IOS c3560-ipbase-mz.122-25.SED1.bin.
I have configured the syslog server on all the devices and there is reachability and port 514 is opened though,
I do make you know that we have many firewalls in the network and i belive tat all the devices have reachability to the Syslog server, ( My firewall blocks the Ping traffic and traceroute traffic) so i unable to find out which firewall blocks.( if it is so)
Please let me know how do i validate remaining 1200 devices. :(
Please help me,
Nithin M

Hi Nithin
my advice is to issue a command on each device that will initiate a syslog message. At least this way you can be sure its working, since you will always expect the same kind of syslog message. I know for example if you have the syslog severity set to level 5 you will get "configuration change" messages. To set your level enter this command:
'logging trap notifications'
And then , by entering into config mode ( "conf t" ) as well as exit out of config mode a CONF_I syslog message will be sent immediately as you exit out configuration mode.
hope it helps.
Cheers
Pierre
