Hello
I'm trying some stuff with syslog-ng 1.9.9. Is it possible to start the syslog-ng daemon when one of the remote hosts to which messages have to be send is not reachable? it seems not to be the case, but my config might be a little bit too thin...
I have two destinations for my logs, one is on the local disk, the other is a host in the network. It seems that when the host is not available syslog-ng won't start, although it should better start logging to the local disk.
What happens when the remote host connection gets broken while syslog-ng is running?
Hm.. syslog-ng should behave exactly what you described, e.g. it should start up and continue connecting to the remote host. I've just checked it myself and it works. -- Bazsi
