Here's my setup: in /etc/rc.conf: syslogd_enable="YES" syslogd_flags="-a 192.168.1.249" in /etc/syslogd.conf: *.* /var/log/messages I'm receiving packets at the network interface and have made an ipfw rule to allow them specifically (even on an OPEN firewall): 63000 188 18944 allow udp from 192.168.1.249 to any 514 My loghost has ip address of 192.168.1.200, so the above *should* work according to the man pages. I've even verified the ability to log to a linux laptop, but not to my FreeBSD4.3-STABLE box. Can anyone provide a clue as to why it's not logging?
