Yes, I finally figured that out. :) As other options are added though, it might be handy to know which ones are available with which versions, maybe on the online manual options page? I didn't download syslog-ng very long ago and at the time it was the most recent one listed on the download page. So I didn't realize so many others had come out in the meantime and thought that if it was listed on the options page with all the rest, it must be a standard one available to me. I stand corrected. :) Thanks, Krista -----Original Message----- From: Balazs Scheidler [mailto:bazsi@balabit.hu] Sent: Monday, August 16, 2004 11:54 AM To: syslog-ng@lists.balabit.hu Subject: Re: [syslog-ng]check_hostname(yes) - parse error On Wed, 2004-08-11 at 23:36, Smith, Krista wrote:

Hello,

I've got syslog-ng (1.4.17) working on a Solaris 9 central logserver, except for one small thing. I'm trying to use the option "check_hostname(yes)" but I get a parse error when I add it to my options. My options line looks like this:

options { create_dirs(yes); keep_hostname(yes); check_hostname(yes); };

If I remove that portion of the line, it gives no error. I've checked for invisible characters, searched Google and the syslog-ng archives, but cannot find anything suggesting what the problem might be. If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd be grateful.

try it with syslog-ng 1.6.4, you'll be surprised :) -- 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
