Hi,

Version 1.4 and SOCKET_DGRAM did not work here. I'v found more people round
the web that have equal problems with different versions of syslog/kernel
etc:

Quote //
$ syslogd -d
 
Allocated parts table for 1024 file descriptors.
Starting.
Called logerr, msg: network logging disabled
(syslog/udp service unknown).
logmsg: syslog.err<43>, flags 4, from (none), msg
syslogd: network logging disabled (syslog/udp service
unknown).
Called fprintlog, logging to CONSOLE /dev/console
Called logerr, msg: see syslogd(8) for details of
whether and how to enable it.
logmsg: syslog.err<43>, flags 4, from (none), msg
syslogd: see syslogd(8) for details of whether and how
to enable it.
Called fprintlog, logging to CONSOLE /dev/console
Debugging disabled, SIGUSR1 to turn on debugging.

// End Quote

And there are a /etc/services, /etc/protocols files (if that matters...) or
/etc/syslog.conf
And it do'nt create any /dev/log.

This will be fixed in the next release which will only be a bugfix
release and hopefully happen this week (*hope*)
