This I don't understand. I thought syslog-ng was the new syslog daemon of choice for LFS. If it goes away, what is destined to replace it?



Gerard's post came as a shock to me as well, so I took the opprotunity to ask him about it on IRC, since he happened to be there at the time. Evidently some flaws have been found when syslog-ng is used in a "production" type enviornment, placing a lot more load on it than what most of us probably do. Archaic has more information, but to put it in general terms, syslog-ng's handling of the logging function can significantly delay action in some cases. I'm sure we'll here more on it soon.
