In the config I have, The only log destinations you have set up are:
cisco7206.log
uspcce.log
Both of which had the same filter name as the definition.
There are no definitions at all for:
cefet.log
incor.log
ufabc.log
unesp.log
unifesp.log
It seems to me that someone replaced your config if you say all this was working before....
Dukes,
In fact, there are some files configured by syslog-ng own.
Below are the files that I myself had created. But only the uspcce.log has been updated after the last change I've implemented.
cefet.log
cisco7206.log
incor.log
ufabc.log
unesp.log
unifesp.log

I see 21 log files configured in your syslog-ng.conf file, which ones are missing?

Dukes,
I implemented your changes and I can say that almost everything came back to work correctly, but...
At the beginning, I had seven .log files been incremented by the syslog and now I have only one .log file been incremented.
What can be still wrong?

Hi Wagner,
A couple of problems with your config:
1. I believe that prior to syslog-ng v3.x, you could only have one source defined.
try removing your source net definition, it's a duplicate of "s_all" and there's no need for it.
- be sure to update any reference to "net" and change them to "s_all"
2. You have destinations and filters with the same name, I'm pretty sure this is not allowed.
Try something like this:
source s_all {
# message generated by Syslog-NG
internal();
# standard Linux log source (this is the default place for the syslog()
# function to send logs to)
unix-stream("/dev/log");
# messages from the kernel
file("/proc/kmsg" log_prefix("kernel: "));
# use the following line if you want to receive remote UDP logging messages
# (this is equivalent to the "-r" syslogd flag)
udp();
};
destination d_Cisco7206 {
file("/var/log/routers/cisco7206.log"
create_dirs(yes) );
};
destination d_Metrosampa-USP_CCE {
file("/var/log/routers/uspcce.log"
create_dirs(yes) );
};
filter f_Cisco7206 {
host("10.0.0.2");
};
filter f_Metrosampa-USP_CCE {
host("10.0.0.3");
};
log {
source(s_all);
filter(f_Cisco7206);
destination(d_Cisco7206);
};
log {
source(s_all);
filter(f_Metrosampa-USP_CCE);
destination(d_Metrosampa-USP_CCE);
};

Hi, Dukes. Thanks for your reply.
At this moment, I must to turn back to log into the .log files, at the same way of the beginning. This is urgent for now. (Below is my syslog-ng.conf file)
Next, my boss is asking me to test the Syslog plugin for Cacti.
Finally, if this solution doesn't solve our demand, I will consider to re-install and test the Logzilla.

If you need help with LogZilla, please let me know.
For syslog-ng, it would help if you posted your syslog-ng.conf file.

Hi, all.
When I installed Syslog-ng, I configured it to log all the device's
activities into the .log files. It worked well for some weeks.
In the last week, I tried to use Logzilla ( former PhP-Syslog-ng) but I
can't successful, then I removed Logzilla yesterday.
After I removed Logzilla, I noticed that all the activities are been
recorded into the /var/log/messages file and no longer into the .log
files I've created for this purpose, originally.
What should I configure to turn logging in those .log files? I already
have the syslog-ng.conf configured properly.
Thanks in advance.
