RedHat EX200 Exam - Topic 1 Question 31 Discussion

You are a System administrator. Using Log files very easy to monitor the system. Now there are 50 servers running as Mail, Web, Proxy, DNS services etc. You want to centralize the logs from all servers into on LOG Server. How will you configure the LOG Server to accept logs from remote host?
A) By default, system accept the logs only generated from local host. To accept the Log from other host configure: vi /etc/sysconfig/syslog SYSLOGD_OPTIONS='-m 0 -r' Where -m 0 disables 'MARK' messages. -r enables logging from remote machines -x disables DNS lookups on messages received with -r service syslog restart
B) By default, system accept the logs only generated from local host. To accept the Log from other host configure: vi /etc/sysconfig/syslog SYSLOGD_OPTIONS='-m 2 -r' Where -m 8 disables 'MARK' messages. -r enables logging from remote machines -x disables DNS lookups on messages received with -r service syslog restart

I thought -m 8 was for disabling MARK messages, not 0.

Wait, isn't -m 2 the default? Sounds off.

I remember that -r is definitely needed to allow remote logging, but I can't remember the implications of the different -m values.

I’m a bit confused about the options. I thought -m 8 was supposed to disable 'MARK' messages too, but I can't recall the exact details.

I remember that we need to enable remote logging by modifying the SYSLOGD_OPTIONS, but I'm not sure if -m 0 or -m 2 is the right choice.

I think -m 0 is correct because it disables 'MARK' messages, which can clutter the logs. We practiced something similar in class.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to carefully read through the options and think about which two would be the main advantages.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'm not too familiar with the details of the IT Act, so I'll need to do some quick research to figure out which section covers this type of offense.
