Picture 1 - Static IP Address Configuration Below is an example of static IP configuration for the interface ens3. Then edit the file /etc/network/interfaces with nano or vim editor and configure IP settings. Find the name of our Ethernet interface with the ifconfig command. You probably need to configure a static IP address for the interface. Change the username ubuntu inside the file to your username. when you get your console again, login and install updates with the command:įirst, you need to download a simple configuration file that I created for you. Once an installation process finishes, the system is rebooted. The manual helps you to setup syslog-ng on Ubuntu server and troubleshoot the possible issues.ĭuring Ubuntu installation you are asked to provide the username/password and IP settings. For this reason I wrote a basic installation and configuration manual for him which I share with you. However it was challenge to explain all the steps in an easy manner as he was a total newbie in a Linux world.
The Linux OS with installed syslog-ng is perfectly suitable for this job because it can collect logs from any source, process them in near real-time and deliver them to a wide variety of destinations. Some time ago I was asked by my friend to recommend a cost-free solution that he could use for storing logs of his security device over network.
