Re: [syslog-ng]syslog-ng stopped working yesterday

syslog-ng probably blocks on something, maybe on a DNS query. can you strace syslog-ng while it is blocked like this?

I found the problem, the reverse dns zone for one particular host was classless delegated, and that name-server was configured wrong. Pretty interesting that syslog-ng fails that bad when dns doesn't work. Once the problem was fixed everything went back to normal. -- Med venlig hilsen / Best regards Gorm J.
