[syslog-ng]Trying to send log over network

[Simeon Johnston]

I used strace although I didn't get much out of it.  I have never used it before.
I think that it is not being allowed to initiate a connection or it is trying but
is not allowed to connect to the logserver so it stops.  I have a few more
questions.
1. Does syslog-ng need an entry in the inetd/xinetd configuration?  I didn't see
anything about it in the manual.
2. Would this disallow any information from getting through if there wasn't an
entry?
3. Any other thoughts?

Any help would be appreciated.
