RE: 'debug' priority?

I may not be reading this right and forgive me if this is the case, but syslog-ng will only log debug when the message is sent with level debug.  It doesn't work like regular syslog in that it records up to that particular level.  If you want everything from emerg to debug you use level(emerg..debug).  Have you tried to send something like logger -p local1.debug "testing" to it to see what happens?  Again I apologize if I misread this.

Regards,

Drew

That's really strange. Here is some additional info:

root@dev-ims1 # /sbin/syslog-ng -V
syslog-ng 1.6.2
root@dev-ims1 # uname -a
SunOS dev-ims1 5.8 Generic_108528-23 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-60

root@dev-ims1 # gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 3.2.1
Copyright (C) 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

compilation: ./configure --enable-sun-streams --enable-sun-door
--with-libol=/usr/local/bin; make; make install

Complete truss output is available here: http://www.marvin.cz/ng . It
shows start of syslog-ng under truss utility, some restarts (kill -HUP)
and activity after 'logger' command.

If I can deliver more info, just tell me what you need. I really like
syslog-ng, but there are some problems that cause us trouble... and I
really want them to go away.
