apache hostnamelookups sanity-check
by Seth Vidal
Hey folks,
looking at the logs for something today I noticed that our logs are
showing hostnames, not ip addresses of the remote hosts. Which is
somewhat wasteful since - for the local logs we don't need that extra
resolver lookup - and it makes grepping complicated b/c you never know
what the dns reverse map is going to look like :(
so I was thinking of changing the combined, error and common log format
for apache in our configs from using %h (remotehost) to using %a (remote
ip) [1]
Whle we have hostnamelookups off in all of our configs it appears that
using %h overrides (or ignores) that.
so - is there anything I'm not thinking about or forgetting that
changing the log format from %h to %a will result in?
thx

Introduction
by Eutopia
Hi
My names Emma and I work as a Linux Systems Administrator, based in the UK.
I mainly use RHEL/Centos/Fedora.
I'd like to join this group and further my skills. I've worked for a few
years as a System Admin, and I'm able to script using bash/perl/python. I'm
a bit weaker with my python skills, so it would be nice if I could further
my knowledge a bit in this area. I know a moderate amount of sql as well.
I'm familiar with mysql, nagios, ldap, dns, sendmail, virtualization( xen
and kvm)
Hopefully I can be of some use. :)
