cacti 1.2.4 syslog 2.2 FF

cigamit commented 5 years ago

The syslog service on the client needs to set the correct timezone of the syslog server that it's forwarding to. This is more of a documentation issue than a functional issue.

cigamit commented 5 years ago

After reviewing the latest rsyslog documentation, it appears that they have removed the timezone setting. So, this will have to be handled by a design change to the syslog plugin.

This was effectively resolved in an update to the install documentation to use the generated date vs. the date forwarded by the client in the structure of /etc/rsyslog.d/cacti.conf.

As a result, I'm going to mark this resolved.
