It may be a typo on the message but your filter line says f_fileter2 and your log line says f_filter2.  Could this be your problem?

Subject: [syslog-ng]Redhat 7.2, syslog-ng 1.6 and logger, and no logging

I'm unable to get messages into /var/log/messages with logger.

I've compiled and installed syslog-ng 1.6rc3,

I've the following config. (modified the contrib/syslong-ng.conf.Redhat) config file.

Relavent lies of it are:

source s_sys { pipe ("proc/kmsg" log_prefix"kernel: ")); unix-dgram ("/dev/log"); internal(); };

filter f_fileter2 { level(info .. emerg) and not (facility(mail) or facility(authpriv) or facility(cron)); };

log { source(s_sys); filter(f_filter2); destination(d_mesg); };


I've tried the following: logger -p daemon.crit "Testing, Hello?"
and various others such as user.crit user.warn, etc. Nothing.
Syslog-ng does however log the fact that it starts and stops (at least after I edited the default filter to be (info .. emerg) instead of just (info)

I also see a few entries for STATS: dropped 0.

Help!
