Syslog remote logging problem after reboot

Try editing this file on your firewall and remove the if statement and closing bracket, so it just runs system_syslogd_start(); no matter what.
See if that helps.

Hi jimp,
which file should we edit?

Whoops there should have been a link in there.

Fine, that works for me.

jimp · Feb 12, 2013, 4:30 PM

So that change fixes the problem?

Or you're OK with testing the change?

athurdent · Feb 12, 2013, 5:11 PM

Oh, sorry! I meant to say, the change worked for my setup (ALIX Board), it fixes the problem. And thanks for looking into this!

OK, I took the if statement out and updated the comment. Should be in later snapshots.

I've got the same problem with 2.0.3, presumably I could try the same fix? Thanks, Adrian

Yes if the same test/code is there on 2.0.x then the same fix should work.

Thanks - I'll give it a try in a couple of days and let you know. Adrian.
