Balazs, It worked, after changing all Makefiles to read DESTDIR = /tmp/staging (Couldn't get "make DESTDIR=/tmp/staging install" to work, see below). Thanks, Esteban. $ make DESTDIR=/tmp/staging install No suffix list.

Hi,

I want to build Syslog-ng on one machine but use it on another.

Is it enough if I copy the binary syslog-ng and the configfile syslog-ng.conf? Or do I need more?

I want to do this for AIX and for HP-UX machines.

try using the DESTDIR feature of the makefile distributed with syslog-ng: make DESTDIR=/tmp/staging install this copies binary files using /tmp/staging directory as root. you only need to tar and untar its contents on the destination host. -- Bazsi PGP info: KeyID 9AF8D0A9 Fingerprint CD27 CFB0 802C 0944 9CFD 804E C82C 8EB1 _______________________________________________ syslog-ng maillist - syslog-ng@lists.balabit.hu https://lists.balabit.hu/mailman/listinfo/syslog-ng Frequently asked questions at http://www.campin.net/syslog-ng/faq.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ De Belastingdienst gebruikt e-mail niet voor officiele mededelingen. ==============================================================================
