Below is documentation for using SourceLabs Self-Support Suite for Linux and Open Source Java to gather, organize, and search Syslog messages.
You can setup syslog to connect to the relay. In this release, we only support syslog over UDP. To set this up, you need to modify your syslogd config file. Often this is in /etc/syslog.conf
To get started, you can add
. @relayMachineName:4657
This will send all your syslog messages to a machine named relayMachineName over port 4657. Port 4657 is the default port the relay listens to for Syslog UDP messages. You can change this in the relay’s property file. This properties file is located in the ‘conf’ directory of your relay installation (e.g. /opt/sourcelabs/relay/conf).
To filter the syslog messages sent to the relay, please read the syslog documentation or man pages for more information.
Syslog-ng:
You can also setup syslog-ng to use the relay. For the current version of the relay, you will need to use UDP logging to the relay instead of TCP. To set this up, you need to modify your syslog-ng config file. Often this is in /etc/syslog-ng.conf
To get started, you can add
destination d_relay { udp("relayMachineName ", port(4657)); };
log { source(s_sys); destination(d_relay); };
Assuming that you are using a default syslog-ng configuration where source ‘s_sys’ represents all syslog messages (modify source as necessary for your configuration),this will send all your syslog messages to a machine named relayMachineName over port 4657. Port 4657 is the default port the relay listens to for Syslog UDP messages. You can change this in the relay’s property file. This properties file is located in the ‘conf’ directory of your relay installation (e.g. /opt/sourcelabs/relay/conf).
To filter the syslog messages sent to the relay, please read the syslog documentation or man pages for more information.

Ubuntu is a Linux distribution growing in popularity and based on Debian that focuses on desktop Linux. It is included in Sourcelabs’ Self-Support Offering for Linux
Ubuntu has one of the largest, if not the largest and most active user communities of any Linux distribution. Ubuntu is also one of if not the most popular Linux distributions for desktop Linux use.
Ubuntu packages the GNOME project as its window manager, however side projects Kubuntu and Xubuntu also package the KDE and XFCE desktop environments as well. Ubuntu releases are timed to follow GNOME releases by roughly 1 month, and Ubunut shoots for 2 releases a year.
Like its source distribution Debian, Ubuntu uses Apt for package management, and deb packages—however Ubuntu is not always compatible with Debian deb packages. Synaptic serves as a graphical front end to the Apt package manager.
Other notable projects Ubuntu includes in the distribution are Firefox and OpenOffice.
Ubuntu focuses on being usable and being up-to-date, both with new Linux kernels and new versions of GNOME. Ubuntu follows in the sudo security model used by OSX and others, users are strongly discouraged from running as root.
Ubuntu features a very smooth upgrade process from release to release that is built on the apt package management. All that is required to maintain a current version of Ubuntu is to stay up to date on packages via Apt/Synaptic. Ubuntu can be switched to Kubuntu as well through package management as well.
Ubuntu’s design theme is centered around ‘people’ – flesh tones or dark orange and iconographic pictures of humans characterize the style of the distribution.
