Dear Rodney Bizzell,
I started a freshly built syslog-ng from the latest revision from the OSE
master with your config (I used dbld for this.), and it immediatelly
pointed out one syntax error:
Error parsing afsocket, inner-dest plugin spoof_sources not found in
/source/syslog-ng.conf:
45
46
47 destination d_graylog {
48 tcp("0.0.0.0"
49 port (12201)
50----> spoof_sources(yes)
50----> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
51 );
52 };
53
54
55 filter f_kernel { facility(kern); };
Since you did not provided any error message/output from your instance, I
can not investigate it any further currently.
If you encounter any other issue, please try to provide as many information
as you can. Including at least the:
- platform
- syslog-ng version
- installation source (custom built, OBS repository, etc...)
- configuration
- output from syslog-ng
- network setup (if the problem can not be reproduced with the loopback
interface only)
Br,
Laci
