Hey all, We log 20ish hosts to a central log server (many are through stunnel) and recently I started getting dropped messages. I see anywhere from 1-10 dropped per STATS line. This probably has something to do with us installing iplog on some machines and increasing the traffic (only timely coincidence I can think of) I'm wondering what, if anything, can be done to help the situation. I've read that you can increase the log_fifo_size to help with this problem, but I'm not sure what the default value is or what I should set it to. Is there a guideline for what to set this for X number of machines, or for a certain amount of traffic? Thanks! -- Josh
