[syslog-ng] Switching the syslog-ng central server - client messages go missing

[Cottington-Bray, Ian]

Hi

I have a Solaris 10 server running version 3.0 of syslog-ng.

I have built a new server running Solaris 11 with version 3.6 of syslog-ng installed.

I have tested the new server by pointing another client at it and messages appear in the configured files as expected.

I then shut down the Solaris 10 server - change the Solaris 11 server IP configuration to match the details for the Solaris 10 server - restart syslog-ng on the Solaris 11 server.    Things seem to be working ok - except for the (Solaris and Linux) clients using syslog-ng (and referencing the central syslog-ng server by IP) their messages do not arrive at the expected files.

Any suggestions ?

Ian
