Actually, what version of syslog-ng are you using? According to the docs, tls was only available in the premium edition until 3.0. So if youre using something older, that might be why.

Hrm, when I looked at the docs I was seeing dash, however I looked through some more and I see both dash and underscore. Doc bug?

Anyway I cant see anything else wrong with it :-/

I am pretty sure it is an underscore. But I tried and neither dash nor underscore solve my problem.

Its a dash in the 'peer-verify' not underscore as 'peer_verify'. See if that solves it.

Hi list !

I have a problem to start syslog-ng. I got a syntax error on line in bold :

######
# sources

# all known message sources
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: "));
};

source s_unix {
    tcp(
        port(514)
        tls(
            key_file("/etc/syslog-ng/certs/logger.parrot.biz.key")
            cert_file("/etc/syslog-ng/certs/logger.parrot.biz.crt")
            ca_dir("/etc/syslog-ng/certs/CA/")
            peer_verify(optional-untrusted)
        )
    );
};


But I can't figure out what !

Can someone point this error to me ?

Thanks
