Comment on PHPlogcon message parser for SNARE by Jeff

Thanks for this! Does the parser only work correctly when using a diskfile source for LogAnalyzer or, can a MySQL database be used as the source and still be properly parsed? If so, is there a pointer you could provide, as I am unable to get correctly parsed data while using a MySQL database as the source for LogAnalyzer.

Cheers

Hi Jeff !
Maybe it’s too late, but 3 important points to verify :

1 – Snare Client side : in “Network config”, check you enabled “Enable SYSLOG Header?”.

2 – Rsyslog server side : in /etc/rsyslog.conf, check you have this line :
$EscapeControlCharactersOnReceive on

3 – Loganalyzer : Go in “Admin center” >> “Sources”. And verify that you have selected “Adiscon Winsyslog” (in Logline type)

Then, after a “/etc/init.d/rsyslog restart”, this must be ok.

I spent some time trying to get this to work. I have rsyslog dumping to mysql and loganalyzer installed and configured.

I have the msgparser installed with the correct name of the file and inside the file. I do not get any errors when starting rsyslog or loganalyzer. I can also click on message parsers from the admin center with no errors.

The problem is that the parser does not seem to be parsing. It seems like anyway i try to enable the parser the logs enter the same way. From no parser to specified. Even if I direclty edit config.php sources or if i do it from admin center and speciry it. It just looks the same always.

Do I have snare incorrectly configured?

Comment on Logitech presenter R800 rocks by SWAT

I still have to test this one in Amsterdam. As for your model/make, it appears to have the same functionality and as long it works for you, it is fine. (the same applies for application-preference in Linux)

Have had an eye out for the presenter console, since it was in development phase. I have been using it a while now and it is quite usefull. Good to hear somebody packaged it (thanks for the headsup)

I imagine the R800 is a better model somehow, but it seems to have the very same features as the previous 2.4 Mhz presenter model they had:
http://www.logitech.com/en-us/432/175?WT.z_sp=Image

The older model works out of the box on any Ubuntu version I’ve tried and has an incredible range. It’s also the only model among a dozen I tried that didn’t suffer from nearby wireless networks – tested in San Francisco (I kid you not).

It’s also cheaper, if you can find one:

…although it doesn’t look as good at the one you have! I paid $99 at the time, well worth it.

Combine it with the Presenter Console for OpenOffice.org, it’s a must for any presenter.

Package: openoffice.org-presenter-console in 10.04 LTS only.

For other Ubuntu versions download it from http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/en/project/presenter-screen
