Hi all, we have just released rsyslog 3.19.7. This release provides new functionality. The reliability of plain TCP syslog has been improved. Also, rsyslog is now tickless in the most common configuration, helping to save the environment. A new property replacer option has been added and some general cleanup done. This is a recommended update for all devel branch users.
If you use plain tcp syslog, I suggest having a look at this post on the reliability improvements: http://blog.gerhards.net/2008/06/reliable-plain-tcp-syslog-once-again.ht ml In short, be aware that it still isn't perfect and it never will be, because full reliability is impossible with the plain tcp syslog protocol. Regarding the new tickless configuration and its impact on the environment (or your notebook's battery capacity), you may want to have a look at http://blog.gerhards.net/2008/06/coding-to-save-environment.html Download: http://www.rsyslog.com/Downloads-req-viewdownloaddetails-lid-112.phtml Changelog: http://www.rsyslog.com/Article240.phtml As always, feedback is appreciated. Florian Riedl -- Support ======= Improving rsyslog is costly, but you can help! We are looking for organizations that find rsyslog useful and wish to contribute back. You can contribute by reporting bugs, improve the software, or donate money or equipment. Commercial support contracts for rsyslog are available, and they help finance continued maintenance. Adiscon GmbH, a privately held German company, is currently funding rsyslog development. We are always looking for interesting development projects.
