I've just been facing a strange problem. Attached you'll find a perl script. I've been running this script on different machines with different results (the path to perl has been adapted, of course):

machinetype logging daemon OS Perl result

pc syslogd Debian unstable 5.6 doesn't work Sun syslogd Solaris 2.6 5.004_4 works Sun syslog-ng Solaris 2.6 5.004_4 doesn't work

Did anybody ever experience problems like that? I'd say it's perl related, but I'm not sure; any hint or advice is appreciated.

I don't know perl, so I can't react on this.

a collegue of mine said that you are trying to use UDP to send a message, and syslog-ng doesn't listen on UDP by default. -- Bazsi PGP info: KeyID 9AF8D0A9 Fingerprint CD27 CFB0 802C 0944 9CFD 804E C82C 8EB1
