This syslog-ng.conf: options {long_hostnames(no); keep_hostname(yes); chain_hostnames(no);}; source client_sources {unix-stream("/dev/log"); pipe("/proc/kmsg"); internal();}; destination local_dest {file("/var/log/messages");}; destination remote_dest {tcp(ip("127.0.0.1") port(514));}; log {source(client_sources); destination(local_dest);}; log {source(client_sources); destination(remote_dest);}; gives this error messages when I try to use it... [laptop root /etc/rc.d] # /usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng -f /etc/syslog-ng.conf parse error at 8 Parse error reading configuration file, exiting. (line 8) I've stared at this syslog-ng.conf for a long time and can't see what the problem is. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Chris
