Hello, With syslog-ng 1.5.21 (libol 0.3.4), I can't use udp or tcp destination. Example: # cat ./syslog-ng.conf #Minimal configuration file source s_sys { unix-dgram("/dev/log"); internal(); }; destination d_alllog { file("/var/log/all.log" template_escape(off) owner(root) group(sys) perm(0640)); }; destination d_loghost { udp("loghost" port(514)); }; log { source(s_sys); destination(d_alllog); destination(d_loghost); }; # /usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng.1.5.21 -V syslog-ng 1.5.21 # /usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng.1.5.21 -f ./syslog-ng.conf Error creating AF_INET socket (Succès) Error initializing configuration, exiting. # ps auxw | grep -c [s]yslog 0 # /usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng.1.5.18 -V syslog-ng 1.5.18 # /usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng.1.5.18 -f ./syslog-ng.conf # ps auxw | grep [s]yslog root 12680 0.0 0.6 1484 776 ?
