Thanks for that - I will try and give it a go shortly.

As I wrote, I co-incidently was at that body of code today. 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.
