Hello,
Using rsyslog 7.4.7.
Once in a while, some equipment sends a message which includes newline
chars into our central syslog server. This disturbs my filtering of /var/
log/messages.
Can rsyslog be configured to replace incoming newline characters with
another character, such as a space?
the 'right' think to happen is to have the newline replaced with #012 to match
the rest of the control character escaping.
This isn't currently happening because traditionally a newline indicated the end
of the log message, so it didn't need escaping, and when it became possible to
have a newline in the message, it didn't get added.
Rainer, do you want a bug for this? or will you just add it to your todo list?
