a) ifconfig -a |grep 172 this shows you have that ip address on that machine? b) netstat -an |grep 514 is there something already listening on 514 tcp? On Fri, 22 Oct 2004 17:54:39 -0500, Walt Rich <walt.rich@parago.com> wrote:
I'm getting the following error when attempting to start syslog-ng:
# ./S74syslog start io.c: bind_inet_socket() bind failed 172.16.65.61:514 Cannot assign requested address Error initializing configuration, exiting.
here is the line in the syslog-ng.conf file that is setting up a the corresponcidg source:
source net_tcp { tcp( ip(172.16.65.61) port(514) ); };
Does anyone know what the error means and how I can get around it?
I appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks!
