[syslog-ng] syslog-ng 3.5

[Szemere, László]

Dear Rodney Bizzell,
 sorry for the misunderstanding, now it is clear for us, that you
anonymised your config. just a note: it is preferable to use different
masking addresses for different original IP's. i.e.: I can not check this
source: "udp(ip(0.0.0.0) port(514));"

 Back to your problem. It is not clear for me what do you mean by "once changes
are made syslog-ng is failing"
 It is not starting up at all? Or just not forwarding logs to your Graylog
server?

Br,
Laci
