Where do you know if there is a problem whether on the software or hardware of your computer? Many people in various level of computer knowledge know that syslog is the right place to know if there is a problem on your computer. What Is a Log File? Let me give you little explanation about it. If there is a plane crash, what is the first time that rescuer are looking to find out about the cause of the accident? Of course, the answer is the black box which has the function as a recorder of all activities during the flight. Well, that analogy allows us to understand the function of the log files on a computer system. Log files are files that are owned and maintained by the system-especially the server-computer to record all requests of a user to the system. Log file also records any changes the system configuration, including hardware. Syslog analysis is the software that will help us the user to know the activities of computer.
