Is the syslog server on the windows system accept remote connections?


<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have configured openSuse syslog-ng to send logs to a remote windows server.<br />
in /var/log/message file I get this error message every minute: <br />
&quot;Error connecting to remote host AF_INET(x.x.x.x:514) reopening in 60 seconds. &quot;<br />
does any body know what does it mean and how to resove it. <br />
<br />
my entry in syslog-ng.conf <br />
destination eventmanager { udp(&quot;x.x.x.x&quot; port(514)); };<br />
log { source(src); destination(eventmanager);<wbr /> };<br />
<br />
there is a firewall between the client and the remote server. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Thank you.<br />
