Thank you. I downloaded the 20050628 snapshot and the file permission problem goes away. I also collected some more information on the second problem I reported.
First, the relevant portions of my config file:
Now the symptoms. I have an application that continuously monitors the /var/nsm/inbox/router/cisco/ios/12.0/syslog directory and when a file is released in that directory, the application copies it to its working directory and removes it from the original directory. The following shows the files in the directory when using syslog-ng 1.6.5 and then the same is repeated for syslog-ng 1.9.4+20050628. I have also noticed that while version 1.6.5 was producing a single file in a directory per minute (and the time stamp corresponded to current time), version 1.9.4 produces a number of files and the timestamp varies (probably depends on the timestamp received).
There was a problem in use_time_recvd() handling, which I've now fixed.

This seems to be an unrelated issue that it opens the same file multiple times. This is no good. I'll look into this as well. -- Bazsi
