Maybe less is more?Maybe less is more?Posted Jan 15, 2010 20:57 UTC (Fri) by eparis123 (guest, #59739)Parent article: Log message classification with syslog-ng
Sometimes I'm not very comfortable with this "central" sort of approaches, as they get over-complicated by time.
Maybe it's the fear of change, but I like the simple sparse list of configuration files under /etc rather than the GNOME gconf XML repository.
By the same token, while the list of files under /var/log are a bit chaotic comparing them to syslog-ng approach, they are much simpler, and simplicity is good.
The tool seems to shine for server farms though.

You are absolutely right, using patterndb for a single host might be an overkill. It is mainly aimed at larger networks.
