Hello,

I have a rather strange problem with an rsyslog-machine.

I configured it to process incoming logs over network via tcp port 514 using 
imtcp.

The incoming logs on that connection are simply stored in a specific folder in 
a log-file.
This setup works 90% of the time but sometimes logs get "lost".

I have no idea what causes it. I set up a tcpdump on the receiving machine and  
I can confirm that the packages are indeed being delivered.
But for some reason rsyslog does not notice them. I can find all other 
log-messages mentioned in the rsyslog-debug log, where they are noticed and 
processed correctly.

The ones that don't make it to the logfiles are no where to be found.  I cannot 
find any difference in these files, so I would expect them to be handled 
identically.

Has anyone of you ever had similar problems and found a solution?  Its not a 
firewall or network problem as the packages are definitely reaching the client.

I am grateful for any support you guys can provide

With kind regards
