[syslog-ng]?? Connection broken to AF_INET(127.0.0.1:514), reopening in 60 seconds

[Nate Campi]

I'd telnet to the local port where syslog-ng is trying to connect (the
listenening stunnel socket) and type some junk. If you can establish a
connection and send text that's accepted by the remote end, then it
would seem stunnel works.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off
the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the
Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in
rain. Time to die.                          -- Roy Batty, Blade Runner
