[syslog-ng]Issues with HP-UX

[Stephen Tanner]

This does not work.  Syslog-ng still does not log anything.

your source should look the following

source s_sys { pipe("/dev/log" pad_size(2048)); internal(); };

the pad_size ist very important. BTW, it is included in the doku as well
as in the faq I think.

I have recently started using syslog-ng so that I can use stunnel to log
to a central loghost.  I have gotten syslog-ng working on a linux box,
and everything works fine, but my HP-UX boxes won't even log locally,
much less log to a loghost.  Below, I have included the syslog-ng.conf
for one of the hosts.
