Running Syslog-ng 2.0rc3 compiled on AIX 5.2 with xlc TCP connection to syslong-ng 1.6.9 on Linux. AIX config has options { sync(0); log_fifo_size(10000); use_fqdn(yes); keep_hostname(no); chain_hostnames(no); time_reap(60); time_reopen(5); }; When I hup the receiving syslong-ng, the TCP connection is dropped. The AIX syslog-ng 2.0rc3 does NOT reconnect after 5 seconds. sending a SIGHUP to the sylog-ng process causes it to reconnect, but the queued messages do not get sent. I am not sure if syslog-ng was unaware of the failed connection, resulting in it not queueing the messages, or if syslong-ng dropped its queued messages when it recieved a SIGHUP. local files continue to get the messages and remote udp continue to get the messages, but they don't get delivered to the tcp destination.
