	I'm running syslog ng on AIX 4.3.3 and while it works fine 
for system log calls, it doesn't seem to connect to a defined 
pipe and send information to it based on a logger call... 

	below is a test conf file that I'm using. Send a message with 
logger is shows up in the d_mesg, but not to the d_pipe (Netcool 
is attached to the pipe. lsof shows the /var/adm/messages file 
being open, and again not the pipe... 



	source s_sys { 
                        unix
dgram ("/dev/log"); 
                       
internal (); 
                } 
destination d_mesg { 
                         
      file("/var/adm/messages"); 
                        }; 

	destination d_pipe { 
                         
      pipe("/var/adm/mypipe"); 
                        }; 

	log     { 
        source (s_sys); 
        destination (d_mesg); 
        destination (d_pipe); 
        }; 


	Any one seen this, or something like it? 

	TIA, 

	Andrew
