[syslog-ng]Changing what source port syslog-ng uses, when sendinga syslog

[Henning Markussen]

Hi

Thnx for the quick response !

There is a typo in the Example 3-9
destination d_tcp { tcp("10.1.2.3" port(1999); localport(999)); };

I can only get it to work if i use
destination d_tcp { tcp("10.1.2.3" port(1999) localport(999)); };
