Hello,

In using certificates for secure remote syslogging, does rsyslog take into account the certificates's Extended Key Usage ?

For instance, in this case rsyslog is a client.  The certificate used would have the Extended Key usage field set to serverAuth. If the certificate does not have this purpose set, then the certificate would be rejected.  Does rsyslog deal with this ?

rsyslog just uses whatever gnutls does by default. It doesn't try to be fancy, it just does a minimal wrapper around it's normal communications.
