[syslog-ng]config file

[Ryan McCain]

Im about to lose my mind. I've been starting at this config file all
day.  I now get an error on line 41 when trying to run syslog.  Here is
line 41:

source net_hosts {tcp(port(5140) keep-alive(yes)); };

I also source this in my config file.  Not sure if it makes a difference
or not:

source s_sys { file ("/proc/kmsg" log_prefix("kernel: ")); unix-stream
("/dev/log"); internal(); };

...What am I missing??
