Re: [syslog-ng]Am I an idiot? (tcp destinations)

Yeah, I typoed transferring the config line to my mailer. The line as it actually appears in my test config file is: destination d_tcp { tcp("10.1.2.3" port (1999); localport(999)); }; ... which has matching parentheses, and should exactly match the example line given in the documentation. This -should- work, yes? Or does the documentation have a typo as well? -jay

Hello Jay,

there is a wrong double closing bracket at the localport definition.

...

Okay, perhaps I'm an idiot, but with a freshly downloaded and compiled syslog-ng 1.6.6, I get the following:

syslogng.conf (one line long):

destination d_tcp { tcp("10.1.2.3") port(1999); localport(999)); };
