      <div>Hello,&nbsp;<br>
      </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>I'm trying to configure my syslog serveur to receive syslog
        message from a rsyslog client.</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>I used something like that :&nbsp;</div>
      <div><em>source myRemote { tcp(ip(172.25.5.1) port (69000)); }</em></div>
      <div><em><br>
        </em></div>
      <div>Indeed, all works fine except the fact that the port i
        specify is never used, and it seems that a random port is chosen
        instead ( at least, it a tcp port ).<em><br>
        </em></div>
      <div>Each time I change the port in configuration, another port is
        chosen.</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>I checked in netstat that the port I specify is not already
        used, so it's another problem.</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Can somebody help me ?</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Thanks a lot :)&nbsp;</div>
