This is the default if no directive is specified. Please note that now multiple listeners are supported. For example, you can do the following: $ModLoad imudp $UDPServerAddress 192.0.2.1 # this MUST be before the $UDPServerRun directive! $UDPServerRun 514 $UDPServerAddress * # all local interfaces $UDPServerRun 1514 These config file settings run two listeners: one at 192.0.2.1:514 and one on port 1514, which listens on all local interfaces. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- HTH, -Bob
