Hi Alex,

Than you for your reply.

Same for me...spooky.;-)
Well, can you show me "options" line in syslog-ngd.conf?
Mine is very simple as follows.
#options {create_dirs(yes); use_fqdn(yes); dir_owner(syslog-ng);
dir_perm(0750); owner(syslog-ng); perm(0740);};

disappeared.
Sure I will.
Upgrade to 2.0.7 or 2.0.8 is not determined yet.
(mkml suggested me to use 2.0.8 a little minutes ago.)

Regards,
