Hi Rainer. I did this for DNS data, see RFC 4027. There are some idiosyncratic aspects of MIME that needs to be handled, but I don't see anything that would be a show stopper for a syslog format. Oh, and please use a timestamp format that embeds the year! How about the RFC 3339 format? I hate how it is impossible to know what year a log entry was written on modern Linux systems. /Simon _______________________________________________ Syslog mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/syslog
