These options are documented in the "./configure --help" which is the script provided with the source tree for compilation, but since you are already reading this... --enable-static-linking makes the compiled binary independent from anything else on the system. The intent is to provide an application that will not get "broken" when shared libraries are updated sometime in the future. There are a couple of caveates about this, but I'm not going to get into that here. --enable-tcp-wrapper=no makes the resulting syslog-ng NOT check the /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny files for remote connection authorization.

Evan,
Please excuse by ignorance but what do the following options do?
--enable-static-linking --enable-tcp-wrapper=no
Thanks in advance,
Daniel

I compiled from source.
env PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig ./configure --enable-static-linking --enable-tcp-wrapper=no
glib2-2.4.7-1 glib2-devel-2.4.7-1 gcc-c++-3.4.6-8 gcc-3.4.6-8

Did you compile from source or did you use the supplied binaries?

Ditto.
I also am running it on 64bit hosts (CentOS 4 & Fedora Core 3), albeit
only for a couple days now (2.0.5 that is) - without any segfault'ing issues.

Yes, I am using syslog-ng 2.0.5 on redhat4 64bit and not having any problem with crashing etc.
Anything I can help with I will try and do.
Evan.

Hm.. the same has been reported on a mips64 system. This must be a 64 bit related issue, then. I'll try to get a 64 compile environment.
Anyone else who uses syslog-ng 2.0.x on 64 bit systems?
