not enough info here to understand your problem. You may have posted more in a prior post to the mailing list, but I'm not remembering your prior posts precisely enough to respond to them

If you don't set ACLs in rsyslog, rsyslog will not impose any.

There are limits that can happen in the OS IP stack that will limit UDP packets getting to you. And it could be that the messages are getting to you and you just don't realize it because your rules put them in with other logs.

RSYSLOG_DebugFormat is your friend for things like this as it will log lots of data including the IP of the source of the packet.

also check through the /proc/sys/net and similar places to see if there are restrictions there.

If you have rsyslog doing a simple input and write to disk in debug format and can see the data in tcpdump, but not in the disk output, then it's something in the OS that's blocking it.

I read in the documentation that rsyslog should accept UDP packets from all
IP addresses. As we have seen, it does not.
There is also an ACL mentioned. It would be helpful if someone could point
me where to find documentation about the usage of this ACL.
