Sun Solaris Sendmail

The Sun Solaris Sendmail DSM for IBM QRadar accepts Solaris authentication events by using syslog and records all relevant sendmail events.

About this task

To collect events from Sun Solaris Sendmail, you must configure syslog to forward events to QRadar.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Sun Solaris command-line interface.
  2. Open the /etc/syslog.conf file.
  3. To forward system authentication logs to QRadar, add the following line to the file:

    mail.*; @<IP address>

    Where <IP address> is the IP address of your QRadar. Use tabs instead of spaces to format the line.

    Note: Depending on the version of Solaris, you are running, you might need to add more log types to the file. Contact your system administrator for more information.
  4. Save and exit the file.
  5. Type the following command:

    kill -HUP 'cat /etc/syslog.pid'

    You are now ready to configure the log source QRadar.
