syslog-ng for DEBIAN -------------------- If you upgrade from previous version (<=1.5.18-1 and >= 1.5.8-2) of syslog-ng you must restart named and possibly other daemons too, because socket type is changed. syslog-ng doesn't have the -r switch to enable remote logging, but have a config file option for this. See /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf, syslog-ng.conf(5) and /usr/share/doc/syslog-ng/html/book1.html for details. Include a logrotate and syslog-ng conf example from Jörg Sommer
