I am getting this error now..

On Client:
Quote:
syslog-ng[22409]: Connection broken; time_reopen='10'
syslog-ng[22409]: EOF occurred while idle; fd='10'
On Server:
Quote:
syslog-ng[880]: Number of allowed concurrent connections exceeded; num='10', max='10'
All I can find is this solution.
Quote:
source s_local {
unix-streams ("/dev/log" max-connections(20));
internal();
pipe("/proc/kmsg");
};
The problem is that I am not using unix-streams and max-connections(20) is an option for unix-streams. This is what my source line looks like.
Quote:
source s_local { sun-streams ("/dev/log" door("/var/run/syslog_door")); internal(); };
Anyone know how I can fix this error in my config(using sun-streams) ?


Here is the definition from the config file:
Quote:
# unix-stream
# unix-dgram - These two drivers behave similarly:
# they open the given AF_UNIX socket, and start
# listening on them for messages. unix-stream() is
# primarily used on Linux, and uses SOCK_STREAM
# semantics (connection oriented, no messages are
# lost), unix-dgram() is used on BSDs, and uses
# SOCK_DGRAM semantics, this may result in lost
# local messages, if the system is overloaded.
#
# To avoid denial of service attacks when using
# connection-oriented protocols, the number of
# simultaneously accepted connections should be
# limited. This can be achieved using the
# max-connections() parameter. The default value of
# this parameter is quite strict, you might have to
# increase it on a busy system.
#
# Both unix-stream and unix-dgram has a single
# required positional argument, specifying the
# filename of the socket to create, and several
# optional parameters.


# sun-streams
# Solaris uses its STREAMS API to send messages to
# the syslogd process. You'll have to compile
# syslog-ng with this driver compiled in (see
# ./configure --help).
#
# Newer versions of Solaris (2.5.1 and above), uses a
# new IPC in addition to STREAMS, called door to
# confirm delivery of a message. Syslog-ng supports
# this new IPC mechanism with the door() option.
#
# The sun-streams() driver has a single required
# argument, specifying the STREAMS device to open and
# a single option.

STREAMS(4)						 BSD/i386 Kernel Interfaces Manual						STREAMS(4)

NAME
streams -- System V STREAMS networking ABI support SYNOPSIS
To compile support for this ABI into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel configuration file: device streams Alternatively, to load the ABI as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5): streams_load="YES" DESCRIPTION
The streams module provides limited System V Release 4 STREAMS interprocess communication ABI (application binary interface) compatibility for userland applications. Internally, streams provides STREAMS handles by using socket creation kernel routines, and adding state-tracking information to the socket to permit manipulation by STREAMS emulation code in svr4(4). Hence, opening a stream device produces a result similar to what would be obtained by calling socket(2). Applications should never use this interface directly: STREAMS emulation is only provided as a service to support ABI requirements in the SVR4 environment which svr4(4) needs to present to client binaries. SEE ALSO
svr4(4) HISTORY
System V Release 4 ABI support first appeared in FreeBSD 4.0. The ABI was ported from an equivalent facility present in NetBSD 1.3 written by Christos Zoulas. BUGS
This whole interface is a crude hack to produce STREAMS semantics through emulation over sockets. Programmers who hope to be able to use this interface to provide SVR4 STREAMS services to BSD applications will be sorely disappointed. BSD
