Hi,

I am configuring my FreeBSD 4.2-REL as the syslogd server in my local LAN, to collect messaegs from Cisco router, RedHat 71., and Solaris 8 server. As usual, I redirect all my syslog messages to the FreeBSD machine. Things went fine with the RedHat machine, but Cisco router and Solaris gave some error messages as follows:

cvthname(202.1.2.3)
validate: dgram from IP 202.1.2.3, port 48937, name abc.com;
rejected in rule 0 due to port mismatch.
rejected in rule 1 due to port mismatch.

Syslogd command:
---------------------------
# syslogd -a 202.1.2.3 -a 202.1.2.4 

which 202.1.2.3 is a Solaris 8 machine and 202.1.2.4 is a cisco router.

I don't have any idea in this because I do not have a firewall installed in that machine. 

I appreciate a lot in advance for those who will help me ..

Regards,
Chan
