Hi,

I've released syslog-ng 1.3.4, fixing the missing afsocket.h.x bug, and
adding support for a max-connections option for connection-oriented protocol
drivers (e.g. unix-stream & unix-dgram)

This is needed to fix the recently DoS attack against syslogd discussed on
bugtraq. Default limit of connections:

unix-stream: 100
tcp: 10

To change this, you'll need your change your source statement:

source src { unix-stream("/dev/log" max-connections(10)); };
