Hi,

I'm setting up your syslog-ng on an FreeBSD 4.0, and the "not" operator for the filters doesn't work in the 1.3.11 version.

bash-2.03# /usr/sbin/syslogd parse error at 13 Parse error reading configuration file, exiting.

Version 1.3.11 had a major problem in the parser, which I have fixed in the just released 1.3.12. Please test this release too.

I think, there is still a problem in the parser, while this line doesn't work: filter f_all { host("install1") not match("sshd"); }; When the "not" is exchanged with by "and" or "or", all works fine.
