rsyslog status page

This page reflects the status as of 2007-12-19.

Current Releases

development: 1.21.0 - change log - download

stable: 1.0.5 - change log - download

 (How are versions named?)

Do NOT use versions prior to 1.10.1 or 1.0.1, because they contain a SQL injection vulnerability (read security advisory).

Platforms

Thankfully, a number of folks have begin to build packages and help port rsyslog to other platforms. As such, the platform list is now maintained inside the rsyslog wiki. Platform maintainers perhaps have posted extra information there. If you do platform-specific work, feel free to add information to the wiki.

Rsyslog is the default syslogd in Fedora 8.
