Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd. Among other features, it offers support for reliable syslog over TCP and RFC 3195, writing to MySQL and PostgreSQL databases, fully configurable output formats (including great timestamps), the ability to filter on any part of the syslog message, and on-the-wire message compression. It is designed as a drop-in replacement for stock syslogd and thus is able to work with the same configuration file syntax. Of course, some enhanced features require changing the configuration file, but in general, this should be fairly easy. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes: A memory leak in regard to PostgreSQL date formatting and a potential race condition within repeated message processing have been fixed. There are new runtime options to harden ACL processing when DNS is not ready while rsyslogd starts up. There are also some minor changes and code clean-ups. Upgrading is recommended to anyone using previous releases. Users of PostgreSQL are urged to update to this version.
