[syslog-ng] Messages Not Getting Logged

I use a local source like this:
source local {
sun-streams("/dev/log");
udp(ip(0.0.0.0) port(514));
internal();
};
Seems that at some point I started leaving off the "door" part. My
version control logs don't specify why, bummer. Give it a shot like
that.
I don't know if I ever got my solaris boxes onto syslog-ng version 3.x
though. Give this a quick shot and see if it makes things any better
with your version.
