3.1.0 syslogging

[David Stern <da...@umiacs.umd.edu>]

We upgraded a server recently from 3.0.4 to 3.1.0 on solaris. The install is
in a non-standard location and we're not using the CPAN install procedure.
The startup command is

       /opt/spamassassin/bin/spamd -d --syslog-socket=inet \
       -r /var/tmp/spamdnew.pid -i <local-IP> --username=smmsp \
        -m 8 --allowed-ips=<mailhost-IP1, mailhost-IP2,127.0.0.1>

While this worked with the previous version, syslog doesn't start and
throws warnings:
[26924] warn: getservbyname failed for tcp at /opt/spamassassin.310/lib/site_perl/5.8.0/Mail/SpamAssassin/Logger/Syslog.pm line 79
[26924] warn: udp connect: nobody listening at /opt/spamassassin.310/lib/site_perl/5.8.0/Mail/SpamAssassin/Logger/Syslog.pm line 79
[26924] error: no connection to syslog available at /opt/spamassassin.310/lib/site_perl/5.8.0/Mail/SpamAssassin/Logger/Syslog.pm line 79
[26924] error: logger: syslog initialization failed
[26924] warn: logger: failed to add syslog method

Anyone come across this?

TIA
