Good morning,

For some time now I've have syslog-ng 1.6 working on Mac OS X Panther servers, but I could never get 1.6 or 1.9 (and probably some early 2.0 betas) to work.  I just completed an install of 2.0.0 on a clean installed Tiger server. I don't have a complicated logging setup (4 filters, 4 logging destinations), but I do like syslog-ng's ability to eliminate the need for log rotation by logging filters and directory structures...

I know I had been trying every few months over the last year or so to get this installed, and a few other people posted with trouble getting it to run, so I'll post some stats about my setup:


Machine is a 2 GHz G5 Xserve running Mac OS X Server 10.4.8 (8L127).

$ uname -a

Good work, whoever fixed it!
