I'm not sure when this stopped but version 4.11.0 is not logging the lines of Syslog connection accepted; fd='1686', client='AF_INET(1.2.3.4:53538)', local='AF_INET(5.6.7.8:601)' I am unable to find a setting that might enable this.

Log level of that message is changed to verbose 20 moth ago if (res) { socket_options_setup_peer_socket(self->socket_options, new_fd, peer_addr); msg_verbose("Syslog connection accepted", evt_tag_int("fd", new_fd), evt_tag_str("client", g_sockaddr_format(peer_addr, buf1, sizeof(buf1), GSA_FULL)), evt_tag_str("local", g_sockaddr_format(self->bind_addr, buf2, sizeof(buf2), GSA_FULL))); } using that level must show you the message. ----------------------------------- Hofi - Istvan Hoffmann https://memyselfandi.hu https://mantisliagames.com On Jul 2, 2026 at 15:28 +0200, Evan Rempel <erempel@uvic.ca>, wrote:
