Hello All,

Running Solaris 9.  I installed syslog-ng.  I kill solaris syslogd and
then start syslog-ng.  I get nothing.  I even tried "syslog-ng -d -d"
It says it started, nothing else.

I use  logger to test, nothing.

Any suggestions?

Some details:
I've installed syslog-ng from sunfreeware.com packages:

 libol-0.3.13-sol9-sparc-local.gz
 syslogng-1.6.4-sol9-sparc-local.gz

/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf:

 # Solaris 2.5.1 and below uses the STREAMS driver, above extends it
 # with doors. For 2.5.1 remove the door() option from the source declaration.
 #

 source local { sun-streams("/dev/log" door("/etc/.syslog_door"));
 internal(); };

 #destination all { file("/var/log/messages"); };
 destination all { file("/var/log/syslog"); };

 log { source(local); destination(all); };



Thanks in advance,
odk
