I second that. rsyslog is the default syslog daemon for a long time in various distros. 2007, Fedora 8 2008, Ubuntu 2009, Debian Lenny, OpenSUSE 11.2 2010, RHEL 6 RHEL 5 has rsyslog packaged and supported too (not sure if it is the default). For at least three years major distros use rsyslog by default. > rsyslog uses a configuration file syntax very close to syslog's one, but > it is very different for network logging. > And much better. > So could it be possible to upgrade 108.2 with rsyslog and only basic > knowledge of syslog ? > I vote for the complete removal of the traditional syslog in favor of rsyslog. The the lastest release of sysklogd was near 5 years ago.
