ERROR: apr_sockaddr_info failed - All IP's no DNS Names?

Hi All,

I have this error in my nxlog logs, so nothing is working

Feb 19 15:17:11 Server-nxlg-01 nxlog[668]: 2026-02-19 15:17:11 ERROR apr_sockaddr_info failed for 192.168.2.222:12201:514;Name or service not known

Searching for the cause, firstly points to DNS names not being resolvable. - But there are no domain names in the config. Only IP's.

The 514 after the graylog port looks suspect as I'm using 5140 not 514 but I've got the point of being out of ideas!

Any suggestions on where to look please?
