Mailing List Archive: Journald sending log to remote Rsyslog

Hi,

I'm trying to send logs from a Workstation with Journald to my Rsyslog
server.

All references point to change "ForwardToSyslog=yes" in
"/etc/systemd/journald.conf" (I don't know why I cannot find the
"/run/systemd/journal/syslog" socket never) and Rsyslog getting from socket
but in LOCALHOST.

Can I send to REMOTE Rsyslog without install an local Rsyslog in
Workstation?

Best Regards,

Alberto

journald does not have the ability to send over the network to a syslog server.

when you configure journald to send to a syslog daemon, journald throws away a
lot of details that it knows. The other option is to use imjournal in rsyslog to
fetch the logs from journald
