I set-up syslog-ng last week, it's bee working great, but started giving this message every minute src@in syslog-ng: destination connection broken, reopening in 60 seconds I am running syslog-ng with the following command: supervise /var/supervise/syslog-ng /usr/sbin/syslog-ng -d 2>&1 |logger -t syslog-ng & I did it this way because I wanted to use the supervise utility to make sure it stays running, and to do that I needed to keep syslog-ng from becoming a daemon otherwise supervise will think it crashed and run it again and so I'm using the logger command to pass any error messages back into my logs.. in my syslog-nf.conf file all of my destinations are either files or virtual terminals (eg: /dev/tty1) and so I don't see how the connection to any of those could be broken? it seems to be logging ok otherwise.. any thoughts?? btw - I'm running on Redhat 6.0 ..and my thanks to the authors of the program - this is very helpfull
