Hi all

trying to log from solaris 8 to Linux (gentoo). I'm using 1.5.26 on the linux
side and 1.5.25 on the solaris. I've tried several linux versions ranging
from 1.4x to current with no luck. Logging from linux -> linux is no problem.
I've tried googling and newsgroups etc and writing mails but nobody can help.
If nobody replies to this i'll be switching to another logger ;c] here's
the configuration I'm using, its very basic and according to an earlier post
from the "maintainer" it should work:

solaris:

source s_all {
        sun-stream("/dev/log" door("/etc/.syslog_door"));
        internal();
};
destination d_tcp { tcp("1.2.3.4"); };
log { source(s_all); destination(d_tcp); };


linux:

source s_all { internal(); unix-stream("/dev/log"); tcp(); };
destination d_messages {
        file("/var/log/HOSTS/$HOST/$FACILITY"
	owner(root) group(root) perm(0600) dir_perm(0700) create_dirs(yes));
			};
log { source(s_all); destination(d_messages); };


## why is nothing logged from the solaris box ? ##
