Hi, I guess, it is not a new topic, but I could not find any solution, yet. As always, deadlines are near and things seems to get worse and worse, so I thought I give the list a try...
We aim to use rsyslog for a centralized log server and log transmission should be as safe and secure as possible. In our case, that means we want to use syslog via TCP/TLS wherever possible and fall back to TCP or UDP for those nodes that don't support TLS (or even TCP). I sent a post in April, already, in order to find out, if it is possible to run plain TCP and TCP/TLS on the same server instance (seems it does not work, so far). At this time, we managed to connect a few nodes via TCP/TLS, but the server and apparently even the clients keep crashing several times a day, causing a loss messages. For obvious reasons, this is not what we want, at all. I already found a bug report, that seems to point in the right direction, but I don't see a solution even though the status is "resolved": * http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=194 * and its spin off http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=222 What was the solution? What can be done to prevent the crashes? I can provide whatever information you want (at least in regard to the server), but I would rather not post our config to the public. The server is using rsyslog 5.8.0 on Solaris and the clients that are currently connected run version 4.4.2 on Red Hat.
