    macOS Syslog on MacOS

    Syslog on MacOS

    Posted: 30 Apr 2018 11:27 PM PDT

    I am looking at using my mac mini as a syslog server for my network devices and NAS, I would use my NAS, but Synology killed the decent syslog app in favour of a very lightweight one that offers no real functionality or visibility of data.

    I am planning to view the data in splunk, but they recommend a dedicated syslog server as Splunk doesn't really have a way of listening for Syslog input.

    Anyone using anything they would recommend or have advice on how to configure something?

    Can't get sample text in activity monitor.

    Posted: 30 Apr 2018 12:43 PM PDT

    I'm on Yosemite 10.10.5 and my problem is just as I've described. If I click "sample" in activity monitor, it just opens a blank page and a box with a blue line which says "pleas wait while the sample is being taken." But the sample never comes. This has me nervous because that's how I tend to inspect things to see how kosher they look. If I cancel, it doesn't go away.

    Edit: until I figure it out, I'll have to go inspecting the SHA1 of things I'm suspicious of. Tedious but actually more thorough grumble grumble.

    [question] How do I backup selected data from my external HD to another HD(used for TimeMachine) ?

    Posted: 30 Apr 2018 11:40 AM PDT

    I have some folders & files (images) on my external HD which are updated frequently. TimeMachine is really awesome but I don't want to backup my iMac but I want to backup these files to my second external HD(TimeMachine Drive) without formatting my external HD. If this can't be done using TimeMachine then is there any other software i can use for this task ?

    edit: what i want is auto backup files from External HD (ExFAT) -> TimeMachine backup drive. I did google it and found out that I will need to formate my External HD (ExFAT) for this to happen. But I won't be able to formate my HD.

    finL edit: I managed to solve my problem by using this amazing software RsyncOSX! it is bit complex but follow the video tutorial and u will get use to it in no time, also try to use it on test files and folder till you understand how to use it.

    Looking for a music player (not iTunes!) like Musicbee (Windows only) - Any suggestions?

    Posted: 30 Apr 2018 02:06 PM PDT

    Hello folks,

    I'm looking for a good music player App which allows me to manage my music collection (files stored in folders, various formats).

    I used Musicbee for that in the past however this is, sadly though, only available for Windows.

    Is there a good alternative to iTunes/Musicbee for macOS?

    Restart Siri

    Posted: 30 Apr 2018 02:44 AM PDT

    My Siri will just freeze in regular intervals and a reboot fixes it, but is there any other way to restart it? Like a specific process I need to kill? If I kill "Siri" in the activity monitor it's still frozen
