There's a risk of reordering the messages if subsequent messages may take different routes within the application (ie a different receiving thread); even subsequent messages from the same application, if it is not using TCP. I wonder if syslog is expected to preserve message order.

Same potential for reordering here. Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3SB <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
