Everything looks fine in your configs. Syslog outputs stats every 10 
minutes by default, and from your configuration, should end up in 
/var/log/messages. These stats will show how many messages were sent to 
each destination, and received from each source. Or if there's problems, 
it'll show how many messages were dropped.

Will look like:
Jul 22 16:26:04 slider syslog-ng.515[30889]: Log statistics; 
processed='destination(d_syslog)=789', 
processed='destination(d_oracle_mail)=80761', 
processed='global(payload_reallocs)=9028', 
processed='source(s_syslog)=789', processed='global(msg_clones)=0', 
processed='src.internal(s_syslog#0)=789', 
stamp='src.internal(s_syslog#0)=1279815364', 
dropped='dst.sql(d_oracle_mail#1,oracle,,,oru23)=127', 
stored='dst.sql(d_oracle_mail#1,oracle,,,oru23)=0', 
processed='source(s_master)=1348386', 
processed='global(sdata_updates)=0', processed='center(received)=0', 
processed='center(queued)=0'

> I am attempting to set up a test syslog-ng server in a VM farm. I run CentOS 5.5 and Syslog-ng OSE 2.1.4. My VMs can ping each other and ssh to and from each other. The firewalls are off. Yet I still can only locally log for both server and client, the server doesn't see my clients logs at all.
