Hi,

somehow I have miss-understood how to get syslogd to recieve logs from
another host, well my actual problem is syslog bitching likse this:
Mar 25 01:00:00 <kern.emerg>  syslogd: unknown priority name ""
Mar 25 05:00:00 <kern.emerg>  syslogd: unknown priority name ""
Mar 25 09:00:01 <kern.emerg>  syslogd: unknown priority name ""
Mar 25 13:00:00 <kern.emerg>  syslogd: unknown priority name ""
Mar 25 17:00:00 <kern.emerg>  syslogd: unknown priority name ""

syslog.conf:
*
#+oxdeadbeef
*.err;kern.warning;auth.notice;mail.crit       /var/log/console
*.notice;authpriv.none;kern.debug              /var/log/messages
