Hi Folks,
I've gotten some review feedback and am doing a grand scrub through
syslog-syslog-04. Very early on, someone told me that they had seen
some implementations that have a space character between the <PRI>
and the TIMESTAMP. I've looked through some snips of code and
have generated messages from several devices. Those that do have
a real TIMESTAMP just start that immediately after the ">". Some
devices that don't have a valid TIMESTAMP will sometimes place a
space or other character after the ">".
Unless someone objects, I'm going to change what is written in
syslog-syslog to remove the reference to the "optional space after
the PRI field". From what I've seen, syslogd is always looking
for strftime in the format of "%h %e %T " immediately after the ">".
Your comments and thoughts appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris
