thanks for your reply ! I am already using keepalive on the server :
tcp (ip("**********") port(5000) max-connections(1000) keep-alive(yes)); };
It doesn't look like I can specify this option on the client though. If I try something like : destination loghost { tcp("*********" port(5000) keep-alive(yes)); };
It complains about a syntax error. I have never seen an option called 'tcp-keep-alive()' but I tried it without luck. It always complains about a syntax error. I guess you meant 'keep-alive(yes)' right ?
tcp-keep-alive was added in 1.6.3 as I read my changelogs. keep-alive and tcp-keep-alive are different beasts, the first means that syslog-ng should keep all connections open through reloads, the second means to enable SO_KEEPALIVE option.
As far as upgrading is concerned I want to but I wanted to wait till 2.0 is out and stable. Any ETA ?
It all depends on testers. Judging the feedback it is either rock solid, or no-one is using it. I suspect it is the latter. In the current situation an "it works for me" messages would help a lot, the first can be this very mail, as I've been using 1.9.x snapshots for about a year now. -- Bazsi
