Hi all,

I am somewhat stuck with a very basic configuration. I use

rsyslogd:   origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="7.2.5

*.*         /var/log/messages;xyzzy
*.*         @@myloghost:20514


I would expect

1. everything is logged in /var/log/messages with template "xyzzy"
2. everything is forwarded to myloghost via TCP/20514

While 1. works as expected 2. does not, I cannot even see a connection
attempt to "myloghost" via tcpdump at all.

This should work. you didn't say what OS this is on, you may be running into problems with a local firewall or SELINUX config blocking your access to a non-standard port.
