<body class='hmmessage'>Dear users:<BR>
<BR>
my first post, so please let me know if I commit some fo-paw.<BR>
<BR>
can you let me know if I am mis-configuring something here -- it's my first attempt at using destination sockets:<BR>
<BR>
system: sun solaris 10 (sparc)<BR>
software: syslog-ng.2.0.5<BR>
syslog-ng.2.0.6<BR>
(no extra-ordinary compile options)<BR>
<BR>
/usr/local/etc/syslog-ng.conf (pertinent lines only)<BR>
<BR>
destination poe { unix-dgram("/tmp/poeunixsocket"); };<BR>
log { source(s_sys); destination(poe); };<BR>
<BR>
socket file is <BR>
srwxr-xr-w root root 0 poeunixsocket<BR>
<BR>
I figured with no listener, ng would just buffer.<BR>
<BR>
starting ng (as root) I get:<BR>
<BR>
Error binding socket; addr='AF_UNIX(anonymous)', error='Is a directory (21)'<BR>
Initiating connection failed, reconnecting; time_reopen='10'<BR>
<BR>
I've tried unix-stream as well to no avail.<BR>
<BR>
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks,<BR>
