Hi, just did an apt-get upgrade today and installed syslog-ng 1.9.9 after this I was fighting some hours with my system. syslog-ng logged a few minutes then it hanged, all logfiles showing the same timestamp. This also caused my mail system ( postfix ) to hang and also caused other problems. After a restart of syslog-ng the problem was gone, also 2 times sylog-ng started logging again after about 15-20 minutes for a short while. I found something on a old mailinglist about 2 sources from the same unix-stream which was the case in my logfile. I removed the second one but the problem still occured. I have also read something about klog runing, which isn't the case on my machine. I have now downgraded syslog-ng to 1.6.9 and it's working fine again. My system is a Debian linux Linux 2.4.31-grsec #21 SMP Fri Dec 2 08:49:48 CET 2005 i686 athlon-4 i386 GNU/Linux Best regards, Cristian Livadaru
