-I am pleased to announce the initial beta release of the rsyslog package.
-
-Rsyslog has been forked from the sysklogd package. It currently shares its
-base design but includes many important enhancements. Most importantly
-it supports
-
-- the ability to receive syslog messages via tcp
-- direct logging to MySQL database servers
-- fully configurable output formats, including
- * high precision timestamps with year ;)
- * access to each of the message parts as well as substrings thereof
- (includes access to facility and priority)
- * access to the raw message received
-- compatibility to stock linux syslogd
-
-Rsyslog is GPL'ed software. Details and the download on it can be found at
-
- http://www.monitorware.com/rsyslog/
-
-This package has performed well in our test environments but it is a beta
-release. So you might experience problems of all kind when you try it. So far,
-it has been compiled Red Hat and Debian Linux as well as FreeBSD (but BSD
-sometimes slips final testing and thus there might be some compile issues).
-
-We would appreciate any feedback from early testers, including bug reports,
-additional platforms it runs on and new ideas.
-
-Thanks to everyone who has contributed ideas, patches and bug reports.
-Special thanks to Tina Bird for being a constant source of new ideas and also
-to Bennett Todd for his suggestions (yes, those back from 2003 also finally
-made it into rsyslog ;)).
-
-We hope to receive ample feedback. The more feedback we receive, the more
-enhancements will happen (and the faster they will appear). You can
-send any feedback and suggestion to the rsyslog mailing list. Archive
-and subscription management is available at
