[syslog-ng]a weird configuration

[Julio Kriger]

Yes, exactly.

a) I'm using Linux Gentoo 2.6.11-rc6 (gentoo-sources if you know about
gentoo)
b) Any debug message, I've done some modifications and I'm testing them,
I've added my own messages
c) It will help understand why this modifcation I made don't work :)

TIA

Regards,

Julio
