Therefore intermediate routers (or your log-client) will not generate a "host unreachable" or something similar. It would be up to the associated tcp-client (rsyslogd in this case) to detect subsequent connection failures and flag an error. Your OS can`t do anything about this situation. Maybe dropping arp-resolution for that particular client or server could simulate an more accurate "syslog-server has died"? :) Regards user01 _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
