Hello.

I`ve set up an syslog-ng server that will receive syslog-messages from
different hosts.
But I have some problems with my configuration.
I was hoping some one could point out what I`m doing wrong..

----------

This is the host`s configuration:

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

source s_send { udp(); internal();  };

destination d_send { udp("192.168.80.94"); };

filter f_send       { level(info); };

log { source(s_send); filter(f_send); destination(d_send); };

---------------------

AND here`s the server-config:

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

source crusher-1 { udp(); internal(); };

destination d_crusher-1 { file("/var/log/crusher-1"); };

filter f_crusher-1   { host("192.168.80.141"); }

log { source(local); filter(f_filter2); destination(d_mesg); };
-----------

I`ve been snooping my interfaces and the host doesn`t seem to send out any
messages via udp..


Hints are welcomed:)
