Hi,
Really, as mentioned by Balazs, try using /var/run/log in your syslog-ng.conf file.
On Freebsd 4.5: syslog.h:#define _PATH_LOG "/var/run/log"
I dare to say, it is exactly what configure script is for :-)
the configure script is for detecting compile time variables. The path to the default local log socket above is configuration data for syslog-ng, as it doesn't care about what OS you are running on, you could specify /var/run/log on Linux too (and symlink /dev/log to /var/run/log). Too bad different platforms behave differently but that's what the contrib directory is for: include platform specific config files (btw: this BSD thing is clearly written in the INSTALL file) -- Bazsi PGP info: KeyID 9AF8D0A9 Fingerprint CD27 CFB0 802C 0944 9CFD 804E C82C 8EB1
