There seems to be a problem with my syslog-ng configuration as its
telling me: Connection failed; error='Connection refused (111)',
reconnect='10'

Relevant syslog-ng.conf lines:

destination df_firewall { unix-stream("/var/log/firewall-stream"); };

log {
        source(s_remote);         # works
        destination(df_remote);	  # works
        destination(df_firewall); # new
};

I've tried starting syslog-ng with and without the log file created (and
777 permissions).  I feel like I'm missing something very obvious.

Thanks for your help!
