Hello all. I have a syslog-ng server and I want to forward some messages to a Syslogd Server. I don't want stunnel or anything special, just send syslog-ng messages via udp(514), but right now I get the following error:
Can you netcat to 192.168.4.252 port 514 and send some lines? If this works then something with syslog-ng might not be ok. If this (the netcat thing) does not work, then you might have a problem with a filter or a routing table entry for example.

Do you have a packet filter between your host and the syslogd server? Is the syslogd really listening on 192.168.4.252:512 (UDP) on the server? Is this address routed and connected physically to the correct interface?
ECONNREFUSED (errno 111) normally means that no one is listening on the remote address.

I tried to send to 192.168.4.252 UDP 514 syslog messages via another computer with Kiwi Syslog gen and the packets arrive with no problem at all. So I guess the problem resides on my syslog-ng server. What could it be? Thanks in advance Gerardo Amaya
