There is still some development and we need to make clear in one thing. Here it is: "-g" accepts only gss connections "-t" accepts all connections (gss as a plain text) but, we have a requirement to log both(gss and non-gss). Solutions: 1. -g somePort -t someOtherPort - this might be easy implemented 2. check if the mesaage is gss or not - a bit hackish, since there is no protocol I think patch is OK to release, but I'd like to avoid breaking compatibility in the future. > I will then begin to look at the loadable module de-initialization.

I run 2 syslogs in valgrind during a weekend. Sendind message via UDP on 64 architecture, messages generated every 1/3sec. RESULT: no segfault. :-( F8 is out for 2 weeks, we have only one bug report.
