dear managers,

i'm trying to set up a sysloghost on our local network (small: 6 stations), but i'm having problems that our sysloghost doesn't collect the information coming from the clients:


sysloghost:/etc/syslog.conf:
------

        # syslogd config file
        # master logging host
        #
        local6.info /var/adm/tcpd.log
        daemon.debug /var/adm/ftp.log


syslogclient:/etc/syslog.conf:
------

        # syslogd config file
        # log-client
        #
        local6.info _at_sysloghost
        daemon.debug _at_sysloghost
        local6.info /var/adm/tcpd.log
        daemon.debug /var/adm/ftp.log



the ip-name 'sysloghost' is known by the client (/etc/hosts)
a 'logger -p daemon.debug daemon_event_on_client' on the client has the correct entry in the clients log-file as a result, but none on the host

the host only records it's own events .... (so it's not a problem with tabs or missing files)

what am i missing?????
