My question involves the availability of a x86_64 version of syslog-ng 3.0.3 for Red Hat/CentOS. According to the info on the first link below, it is available, but at the actual download site at the second link below, only a version for amd64 is available. Any ideas where I can get a version for Intel (x86_64)? I have had issues in the past with running amd64 binaries on an Intel 64-bit system, so I am reluctant to try to install the amd64 version on an Intel 64-bit system. Is the x86 version there 64 bit capable, i.e. does it use the 64-bit libraries by default, and fall back to 32-bit libraries only if 64-bit libraries are not available?

Our internal name for x86-64 is "amd64" (since our build systems are based on Debian source/binary packages) and the official arch name for x86-64 in Debian is amd64. But that binary should run on both, it is compiled against a "generic" x86-64 CPU. -- Bazsi
