I can't get syslogd to accept remote messages when I restrict authorized hosts with the "-a" switch. I really only have one host from which I need to log datagrams, which has an IP of 192.168.5.5. I tried the following: syslogd -a 192.168.5.5/255.255.255.0 syslogd -a 192.168.5.0/255.255.255.0 syslogd -a 192.168.5.255/255.255.255.0 and I turned on UDP-log-in-vain using sysctl, so all I get is Jan 6 21:53:53 aquarius /kernel: Connection attempt to UDP 192.168.5.6:514 from 192.168.5.5:514 Jan 6 21:53:53 aquarius last message repeated 6 times and the like. Can anyone help? Am I mis-interpreting the mask? I already tried 0.0.0.255 as the mask, but then, while I don't get any log-in-vain messages, I get nothing in /var/log/messages when a datagram is sent from the remote machine. - Julian -- Julian C.
