Hi, Right now syslog-ng is built using the dynamic tcp_wrappers library. $ ldd syslog-ng libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x0583f000) libresolv.so.2 => /lib/libresolv.so.2 (0x0029d000) libwrap.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwrap.so.0 (0x00d87000) ^^^^^^^^ libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x00bcb000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00bb3000) In some configurations the /usr/lib directory may not be available (eg: mount by nfs) when the daemon is started. Would it be possible to modify the syslog-ng configure file to use the static tcp_wrappers library instead? A possible patch is attached. Note that it may not be the best solution as I am not a autotools expert (it does work in Red Hat/Fedora distros though).
