hello

after trying to get a usefull logging with the standart solaris syslog i
removed that damn
program and install the newest version of syslog-ng.

i compiled it (straight) using gcc and took a basic configuration and
changed it.
but i ran into one trouble....

my syslog-ng deamon runs fine and when i send a -HUP to it i get a nice
message that syslog-ng
initiolized a new configuration. but i canīt get it to log system
messages.
i used:

source src { unix-stream("/dev/log"); internal(); };
and
source src { unix-stream("/etc/.syslog_door"); internal(); };

i tested both configurations with # logger -t auth.debug "bla" .. but
never got a response
into my logfile.
system is a solaris 7 intel machine.
filter and log for auth.* should be up and running ....

            does anybody know what i did wrong ?

                                    ciao    and
thx                        werner
