[syslog-ng]Syslog-ng dies quietly on Solaris

Hi,

I'm running syslog-ng 1.4.11 with Liblol 0.2.21 on a fresh install of Solaris 8.

I start syslog-ng with a -v and -p, it runs for a few minutes/hours and then just stops (no warnings or
error messages that I can find).

Here's a sample of my config:

options { log_fifo_size (1440000); create_dirs(yes); use_fqdn(no); long_hostname
s(off); sync(3); };

source local { sun-streams("/dev/log" door("/etc/.syslog_door")); internal(); };
source net   { udp(); };

#NETWORK DEVICES ONLY!!!!!
destination unsorted   { file("/var/log/unsorted.log"); };
destination by_host      { file("/var/log/Cisco/$HOST.$DAY$MONTH$YEAR.log" perm(
0777));};
destination all { file("/var/log/SunLocal/$DAY$MONTH$YEAR.messages" perm(0777));
 };
#FILTER FOR NETWORK EQUIPMENT!!!!
filter f_hosta   { host("hosta"); };
filter f_hostb    { host("hostb"); };
filter f_hostc     { host("hostc"); };
filter f_host1 { host("host1"); };
filter f_host2 { host("host2"); };
filter f_host3 { host("host3"); };

#LOGGING FOR NETWORK EQUIPMENT!!!!!
log { source(net); filter(f_hosta); destination(by_host); };
log { source(net); filter(f_hostb); destination(by_host); };
log { source(net); filter(f_hostc); destination(by_host); };
log { source(net); filter(f_host1); destination(by_host); };
log { source(net); filter(f_host2); destination(by_host); };
log { source(net); filter(f_host3); destination(by_host); };
log { source(net); filter(DEFAULT); destination(unsorted); };
log { source(local); destination(all); };

Has anyone seen this before, or have any ideas how I can find out why it's dying?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Sincerely,
JonM
