Hello Family,

I've been trying to get 6.0 to allow itself to accept logs.

I have a line in /etc/rc.conf that states the remote machine:

syslogd_flags="-a 192.168.0.3"

I have restarted "syslogd" so the output of "ps -auxw | grep syslog"
shows the following:

root 21703 0.0 0.3 1296 748 ?? Ss 9:31PM 0:00.03 /usr/sbin/syslogd -a 192.168.0.3

But when I go to check an see if the external port 514/udp is open I
get nothing showing:

#############################################################

[root@logserv ~]-> nmap localhost

(The 1660 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed)
PORT   STATE SERVICE
22/tcp open  ssh
25/tcp open  smtp
80/tcp open  http

#############################################################

So, I was wondering if there is any specific doc's on this setup.  I
fail to find anything specific on the FreeBSD site.

TIA
