Hi folks,

I'm trying to figure out whether we're getting all messages from a PIX into the mysql database. I've done some tests and everything syslog-ng is writing to disk is going to our db on the application server. Now I need to figure out if syslog-ng is getting everything (or nearly) from the PIX.

You'll need to perform what amounts to empirical experimentation, here. In short, fork your logging to another logging platform and compare the results. - billn
