The patch worked. Is there any way to create the pipes on the fly?
I've just pushed these patches to syslog-ng 3.0 repository: commit 44fbc3f955755d6772f5a8919b647d61b10bccd5 Author: Balazs Scheidler <bazsi@balabit.hu> Date: Thu Feb 5 11:09:17 2009 +0100 [affile] allow the use of macros in the case of named pipes previously syslog-ng did not allow the use of templates in naming destination named pipes. now it can do that. commit 5f5d4bd914798c10eef01f6baaf575bc0e3c1557 Author: Balazs Scheidler <bazsi@balabit.hu> Date: Thu Feb 5 11:08:11 2009 +0100 [affile] make it possible to create named pipes As reported on the mailing list, syslog-ng is not currently capable of creating named pipes on its own. This patch will make syslog-ng autocreate pipes when needed. With these, I think you can accomplish what you want. Tomorrow's nightly snapshot should contain these. -- Bazsi
