i configured nxlog on windows machine to send logs to FreeBSD.

checked with tcpdump windows actually send logs like this:

2014-08-21 00:50:17 winserver1 INFO 7036 Usluga nxlog weszla w stan uruchomienia.

this way:

00:50:27.995832 IP 10.100.100.241.54774 > 10.100.100.1.514: [|syslog]

syslogd is run this way
/usr/sbin/syslogd -vn -b 10.100.100.1 -a 10.0.0.0/8

and syslog.conf is like this


+*
*.*				-/var/log/messages


nothing is logged.

to test things - i configured syslog from other FreeBSD computer to send 
logs to 10.100.100.1 - works fine.


what is wrong?
