Hi all,

Need help. My syslog-ng is hanging on Saturdays. It is like the service just stops responding even though it is running. The system having the problem is just basically a syslog bridging/filtering server. I am using syslog-ng to accept syslog messages and filter for only what I need out of them, and then forwarding them on. It is basiclly setup like below:

 

Webserver>>(udp 514)>syslog-ngfileterserver>>(udp1514)>Syslog Loghost

 

Any help you could give to a newbie about debugging or find the issue would be great….Also any scripts to check the service and restart would be great to.

Thanks

Steven Meacham
