Palo CEF logging to messages not syslog

When I run the cef_troublshooter.py i see the following logged to screen

 

sudo tac /var/log/syslog
tac: failed to open ‘/var/log/syslog’ for reading: No such file or directory
Located 0
 CEF\ASA messages

When I went to read /var/log/syslog, i found that log didn't exist. 

My next move was to check messages and that's where i found all my CEF messages. How do i configure rsyslog to log to /var/log/syslog?

 

Thanks,

    My friend after working with MS for 4 hours, we rebuild the server on Ubuntu, it fixed all the problems 🙂
