[syslog-ng]AIX compatability issue?

[John_Delisle@ceridian.ca]

Hi,

I'm running a central syslog-ng server with the following syslog-ng.conf:

options { sync (0);
          time_reopen (10);
          log_fifo_size (1000);
          long_hostnames (off);
          use_dns (yes);
          use_fqdn (no);
          create_dirs (no);
          keep_hostname (yes);
        };

source s_sys { unix-stream ("/dev/log"); internal(); };
source s_remote { udp(ip(0.0.0.0) port(514)); };

destination d_mesg { file("/var/log/messages"); };
destination d_powerpay { file("/var/log/powerpay"); };

filter f_powerpay       { facility(local1); };

log { source(s_sys); destination(d_mesg); };
log { source(s_remote); filter(f_powerpay); destination(d_powerpay); };
log { source(s_remote); destination(d_mesg); };


I have serveral AIX servers that don't seem to get logged.  I'm sending
messages with facility set to local1.  If I comment out the second log line
above I get messages from the AIX servers to my messages file.  When I
enable the second log line as it is above I get nothing.  I've tested
sending messages from other platforms with facility set to local1 and they
get logged in the correct file as expected.

Any ideas?
