Hi, Can anybody pls help me to figure out the problem ?? I only need to know what does these two lines means <43>Aug 11 19:39:03 diluka-laptop syslog-ng[5084]: Connection broken; time_reopen='10' <43>Aug 11 19:39:13 diluka-laptop syslog-ng[5084]: EOF occurred while idle; fd='20' I highly appreciate if you could provide some help.

Hi, I have a little problem which I need to solve. I wrote a small program, which listens to the syslog-ng. I think I have encountered a problem with the timing I'm connecting and disconnecting to the syslog-ng.

I almost always get the following msg with other msgs,

<43>Aug 11 19:39:03 diluka-laptop syslog-ng[5084]: Connection broken; time_reopen='10' <43>Aug 11 19:39:13 diluka-laptop syslog-ng[5084]: EOF occurred while idle; fd='20'

Please let me know whether following code snippet has anything irrelevent or unsuitable.

while(1) { int len, read = 0; new_fd = accept(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *)&their_addr, &sin_size);

while((len = recv (new_fd, buffer, BUFF_SIZE - 1, MSG_PEEK)) > 0) { read = recv(sockfd, buffer, BUFF_SIZE - 1, 0); buffer[read] = '\0'; printf(buffer); memset(buffer, '\0', BUFF_SIZE * sizeof(char)); break; } close(new_fd); new_fd = 0; }

I highly appreciate if you can give some help for me to get the problem solved.

Thanks, Diluka. _______________________________________________ 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
