I have tracked the error to recvfrom... just to see that it was yet reported by Balazs Scheidler :) http://lists.insecure.org/lists/linux-kernel/2002/Dec/0200.html Regards, Carlos Velasco *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 10/01/2003 at 12:35 Carlos Velasco wrote:

More into this,

I have added a message whenever function sockaddr2address_info is invoked:

struct address_info *sockaddr2address_info(size_t addr_len, struct sockaddr *addr) { werror("io.c: sockaddr2info(): PASA"); if (addr_len == 0) return NULL;

And it match in all cases. Whenever a message is sent to syslog with unix-dgram, both lines are logged. If I use unix-stream only the "PASA" line is logged. Something looks like wrong with unix-dgram, can anyone help me with the purpose of this sockaddr2address_info function?

Hi,

I have successfully compiled libol-0.3.6 and syslog-ng-1.5.24

All works ok, messages are logged. However, when I use source unix-dgram for /dev/log, I see these messages in the syslog logs

Jan 9 17:07:26 syslog:err syslog-ng: syslog-ng[179]: io.c: sockaddr2info(): Unsupported address family 64000 (addrlen=256).

As you can see, numbers change when I stop and start syslog-ng. Also, if I use unix-stream, it works, but I'm using klogd 1.4.1 and need dgram.

My system is: Linux 2.4.20 glibc 2.3.1

Any suggestions?
