To my best knowledge syslog-ng forks only when it starts another program (program destination). So it is not normal that you have this number of syslog-ng processes. Would this make sense due to the fact that my destination creates a new file based on the host source? If so, that is encouraging. destination rlog { file("/var/log/$HOST/$MONTH.$DAY.log" create_dirs(yes) owner("log") group("log") perm(0600)); };
No, syslog-ng does not fork in this case.
If the config looks good then I might just do a rebuild to Gentoo and try again. Did you see any obvious errors in my syslog-ng.conf? Thanks very much for the assistance. I learned quite a bit!
it seems to be ok. -- Bazsi PGP info: KeyID 9AF8D0A9 Fingerprint CD27 CFB0 802C 0944 9CFD 804E C82C 8EB1
