Dear Krishna,
Seems that there is conflict in your installation.
To install syslog-ng I recommend that u first install the libol.
get the libol tar.gz file from the http://www.balabit.hu/en/downloads/syslog-ng/downloads/
. Choose suitable one. After installing the libol, proceed with the
syslog-ng installation.
Any difficulties? Do write it in again.
Best Regards,

snalbh> Reply-To: syslog-ng@lists.balabit.hu
snalbh> Ok, now that I've got it installed and running (thanks to all who

snalbh> When starting syslog-ng (I'm on RedHat 7.2), it just reports that it

snalbh> Is this normal?
snalbh> What am I missing? I modified the init.d script for syslog-ng and put it in the /etc/rc.d/init.d directory, and put syslog-ng.conf.RedHat into
snalbh> /etc/syslog-ng directory.
snalbh> I was also capturing all Cisco devices on my network with syslog, so
snalbh> I added:
snalbh> destination ciscol { file("/var/log/cisco.log"); };
snalbh> log { source(src1); filter(ciscof); destination(ciscol);};
snalbh> To capture all the cisco stuff. I did not modify the facility on the Cisco devices, but they are all set to source-interface loopback0.
snalbh> Any ideas?
snalbh> Thanks,

snalbh> You need to make your own syslog-ng.conf file. There are examples in

snalbh> mkdir -p -m 750 /etc/syslog-ng
