Problem with syslog-ng on OpenBSD 3.5 Sparc64
I recently upgraded to OpenBSD version 3.5 Sparc64. I installed syslog-ng version 1.5.24 from the OpenBSD ports tree. The install went fine and there were no errors. I substituted the line in /etc/rc that normally starts syslogd for /usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng. On boot up it starts fine. However after the system comes up all entries to the log are proceeded with the following entry: syslog-ng[18782]: io.c: sockaddr2info(): Unsupported address family 110 (addrlen=256). I did some googling and the only refernces i can find about this, concerns a kernel error in a much earlier release in OpenBSD. I've been playing with it to see if I can determine why the error comes up to no avail. Has anyone seen anything like this? --- 30 July 2004 "Theology, by diverting the attention of men from this life to another, and by endeavoring to coerce all men into one religion, constantly preaching that this world is full of misery, but the next world would be beautiful -- or not, as the case may be -- has forced on men the thought of fear where otherwise there might have been the happy abandon of nature."

Please submit a copy of your config file. There is a port of 1.6.4 in testing (check openbsd-port discussion list). Although, I have had some problems with the sparc64 version of the port, specifically it does not properly show the IP address of the remote syslog host. It works fine on i386. -Steve S.
