Could you provide me a set of sample messages so that I can check? If you like, you can mail me privately. I think the root problem is somewhere message-induced and, if so, it would be very useful to see how it could be triggered. I already use a large set of "malformed" messages (including a few gig of truely random data), but none of them trigger the issue :( Rainer _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com
