Thanks J65nko,
This is the output of syslog-ng -s -v:
Code:
# syslog-ng -s
syntax error in /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf at line 42.

I have signed up and and posted on balabit.com
I did create the directory (mkdir) during the process in /var/log/bcm. It's just a thought, should I have assigned special permissions? I tried to list the perms using:
Code:
ls -l ~/var/log/bcm
It produces:
Code:
ls: /bcm No such file or directory
pwd shows:
Code:
Xorg.0.log bcm daily.out.old lpd-errs messages secure wtmp
Xorg.0.log.old console.log failedlogin maillog messages.0.gz security.out xdm.log
authlog daemon ftpd maillog.0.gz pflog security.out.old xferlog
authlog.0.gz daily.out lastlog maillog.1.gz rdist sendmail.st
Again thanks for your help.
