I resolved it, the problem was due to DNS and missing reverse entries for these hosts. Guess what, it was the logs in the syslog-ng that led to its own resolution !!!
Would you care to share the diff of the not working and working syslog.conf? I am having the same problem Thanks

Hi,
I am new to syslog-ng so excuse my ignorance. I have installed syslog-ng 1.6.2 on Solaris 8. I am getting the logs but the host names are not being resolved. . Strangely logs from another vendor's does have the names resolved by syslog-ng. Any idea whats causing the problem for cisco ?
My syslog-ng.conf file:
options { long_hostnames(off); sync(0); };
source sys { sun-streams ("/dev/log" door("/etc/.syslog_door")); internal(); };
source net { udp(); };
destination network { file("/var/log/syslog-ng"); };
log { source(net); destination(network); };
log { source(sys); destination(network); };
Regards,
QB
