That probably means that it's not syslog-ng causing the problems.

Maybe some firewall rule?

troubleshooting info but didnt spot none of these.

uname -a

syslog-ng --version
syslog-ng 2.0.10

change date on syslog-ng.conf is  "Apr 20  2009"

syslog-ng been running untouched for that long. Millions of lines/ per day
log from 10 source machine.

about 00:20 today Friday,  all syslogging to syslog-ng stopped.

sockstat -4 shows udp/tcp 514 listening

chkrootkit  shows nothing wrong

stop syslog-ng

then pkg_delete, and then

cd /usr/ports/sysutils/syslog-ng2

make && make install

start it,

no change

I rebooted the syslog server.  no change

trafshow -i bce0 -n

then filter 514

... shows 100KBs arriving from our syslog clients.

tshark capture "port 514" on syslog-ng box shows plenty of traffic arriving
with untouched pf rules active,

pfctl -d   no change so pfctl -e

df shows plenty of disk space for /var

suggestions?

=============

dmesg -a | less showed nothing

/var/log/console.log showed nothing

/var/log/messages showed nothing
