Hi, I'm running a central syslog-ng server with the following syslog-ng.conf: options { sync (0); time_reopen (10); log_fifo_size (1000); long_hostnames (off); use_dns (yes); use_fqdn (no); create_dirs (no); keep_hostname (yes); }; source s_sys { unix-stream ("/dev/log"); internal(); }; source s_remote { udp(ip(0.0.0.0) port(514)); }; destination d_mesg { file("/var/log/messages"); }; destination d_powerpay { file("/var/log/powerpay"); }; filter f_powerpay { facility(local1); }; log { source(s_sys); destination(d_mesg); }; log { source(s_remote); filter(f_powerpay); destination(d_powerpay); }; log { source(s_remote); destination(d_mesg); }; I have serveral AIX servers that don't seem to get logged. I'm sending messages with facility set to local1. If I comment out the second log line above I get messages from the AIX servers to my messages file. When I enable the second log line as it is above I get nothing. I've tested sending messages from other platforms with facility set to local1 and they get logged in the correct file as expected. Any ideas? John Delisle Corporate Technology Ceridian Canada Ltd 204-975-5909
