[syslog-ng] syslog-ng logging from localhost

1 Oct 2009

      Hi

we have a syslog-ng configuration see bellow, running on solaris

if I telnet to 10.128.240.100 from server where syslog-ng is running, nothing is logged
if I telnet to 10.128.240.100 from any other server it is logging as expected

do you see something obvious here ?

Thanks,
Stefan
