Subject:   Is there a problem with syslogd -a?

Is there any kind of problem with syslogd and the -a option? I've tried
all sorts of variations (-a 10.0.0.x, -a 10.0.0.x/24, -a
myrouter.mydomain, -a myrouter.mydomain/24, etc.) and it just doesn't
seem to let anything through. Starting syslogd without any option works
(my router can write to the system log--both are on my internal LAN);
starting it with the -a option for a little more security prevents
anything at all from being written. Am I doing something wrong, or is
there a bug? I don't necessarily need the extra security (no syslog UDP
traffic can enter the LAN from the outside, anyway), but it would be
nice if I could get this option to work.
