Hi,
 
I want to config the following for client-ap to read messages one by one. 
and want to know the following configuration is supported over RHEL ES version 4.
 
source s_remote { udp(ip(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) port(514)); };
destination d_remote { unix-dgram("/tmp/test.pipe"); };
log { source(s_remote); destination(d_remote); };

 
Additionally, is there any differences of reliability whether to use unix-dgram or to use pipe ?
 
 
※
Under the following configuration, client-ap need to decide boundary of message.
I want to avoid this.
 
source s_remote { udp(ip(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) port(514)); };
destination d_remote { pipe("/tmp/test.pipe"); };
log { source(s_remote); destination(d_remote); };

Thanks
hiro
