I just *hate* answering my own posts ... :(

Just for the record (and the archives actually) we solved this
problem: there was a space (as oppposed to a tab) in the file.

I see that there is a patch for this very problem waiting to be
committed on GNATS. <hint> <hint> :-P

:
:Greetings, and Happy Fat Turkey Time :)
:
:	We are trying to consolodate all of the various
:machine logs here, so obviously, syslogd with network
:logging is the answer.  Only I cant get it to do this!
:I noticed that this was broken in a recent 3.0 SNAP - 
:is it known to work in the 2.2.5-7 releases?  Just in case
:it is...
:
:syslogd is started on the "logging" host with
: 
:	syslogd -a 10.0.0.0/8
:
:and the syslog.conf entries all look like:
:
:*.emerg               *
:*.emerg               @logger.blah.com
:
:Obviously, we have substituted our addresses with RFC1918 ones..
:
:We have sniffed for UDP packets being sent, but there is none.  The
:receiving side at least has a socket open, so that part may be actually
:be functioning as expected...

:they should set a better example!
