+Version 3.21.4 [DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2008-0????
+- removed compile time fixed message size limit (was 2K), limit can now
+ be set via $MaxMessageSize global config directive (finally gotten rid
+ of MAXLINE ;))
+- enhanced doc for $ActionExecOnlyEveryNthTimeTimeout
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Version 3.21.3 [DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2008-08-13
+- added ability to specify flow control mode for imuxsock
+- added ability to execute actions only after the n-th call of the action
+ This also lead to the addition of two new config directives:
+ $ActionExecOnlyEveryNthTime and $ActionExecOnlyEveryNthTimeTimeout
+ This feature is useful, for example, for alerting: it permits you to
+ send an alert only after at least n occurences of a specific message
+ have been seen by rsyslogd. This protectes against false positives
+ due to waiting for additional confirmation.
+- bugfix: IPv6 addresses could not be specified in forwarding actions
+ New syntax @[addr]:port introduced to enable that. Root problem was IPv6
+ addresses contain colons.
+- somewhat enhanced debugging messages
+- imported from 3.18.3:
+ - enhanced ommysql to support custom port to connect to server
+ Port can be set via new $ActionOmmysqlServerPort config directive
+ Note: this was a very minor change and thus deemed appropriate to be
+ done in the stable release.
+ - bugfix: misspelled config directive, previously was
+ $MainMsgQueueWorkeTimeoutrThreadShutdown, is now
+ $MainMsgQueueWorkerTimeoutThreadShutdown. Note that the misspelled
+ directive is not preserved - if the misspelled directive was used
+ (which I consider highly unlikely), the config file must be changed.
+ Thanks to lperr for reporting the bug.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Version 3.21.2 [DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2008-08-04
+- added $InputUnixListenSocketHostName config directive, which permits to
+ override the hostname being used on a local unix socket. This is useful
+ for differentiating "hosts" running in several jails. Feature was
+ suggested by David Darville, thanks for the suggestion.
+- enhanced ommail to support multiple email recipients. This is done by
+ specifying $ActionMailTo multiple times. Note that this introduces a
+ small incompatibility to previous config file syntax: the recipient
+ list is now reset for each action (we honestly believe that will
+ not cause any problem - apologies if it does).
+- enhanced troubleshooting documentation
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Version 3.21.1 [DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2008-07-30
+- bugfix: no error was reported if the target of a $IncludeConfig
+ could not be accessed.
+- added testbed for common config errors
+- added doc for -u option to rsyslogd man page
+- enhanced config file checking - no active actions are detected
+- added -N rsyslogd command line option for a config validation run
+ (which does not execute actual syslogd code and does not interfere
+ with a running instance)
+- somewhat improved emergency configuration. It is now also selected
+ if the config contains no active actions
+- rsyslogd error messages are now reported to stderr by default. can be
+ turned off by the new "$ErrorMessagesToStderr off" directive
+ Thanks to HKS for suggesting the new features.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Version 3.21.0 [DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2008-07-18
+- starts a new devel branch
+- added a generic test driver for RainerScript plus some test cases
+ to the testbench
+- added a small diagnostic tool to obtain result of gethostname() API
+- imported all changes from 3.18.1 until today (some quite important,
+ see below)
