I did a quick hack to implement it: http://git.adiscon.com/?p=rsyslog.git;a=commitdiff;h=24372200d1ff9a70c0474e99fe03e0faca6cc17f It's more or less untested (other than a 5-minute "seems to work" test). Usage is simple: action(type="omrelp" target="127.0.0.1" port="20514" timeout="90" rebindInterval="4") If the patch does not apply to current master, you need the (temporary, aka "will go away these days" master-rtls branch plus librelp master branch to build.
