The syslog-ng server receives the messages. The issue is the forwarding of the messages to a destination that is not working.

#sample syslog-ng.conf for a remote client
source src
        {
                udp (ip(0.0.0.0) port (514));
                tcp (ip(0.0.0.0) port (514));

        };

destination loghos
           {
                                        udp ("172.22.134.58" port(514));
                                        udp ("172.22.134.55" port(514));

                };

log             {
                        source (src); destination (loghos);
                };

First check using netstat or lsof whether syslog-ng was able to
bind to port 514 or not, and if yes then I propose using truss/
strace to check whether syslog-ng receives the packets.
