Also, can you include the config portions that handle your logging to disk? - billn On Tue, 28 Dec 2004, Balazs Scheidler wrote:

Hi,
I have a wierd problem, yesterday around 14:00 CET syslog-ng just stops working. The daemon runs, but allmost nothing is writtes to the logs.
I have used syslog-ng for some years now, and it never let me down.
When running syslog-ng -dv the last things it tell me is:
Objects alive: 203, garbage collected: 1 AF_INET client connected from 80.63.205.142, port 3630 io.c: Preparing fd 14 for reading
And then it stops logging, but seeing with tcpdump that i receive tons of syslog, and even local logging with "logger" doesn't work.
Installing a new syslog-ng on another machine does the same, which confuses me.
syslog-ng probably blocks on something, maybe on a DNS query. can you strace syslog-ng while it is blocked like this?
