|
|
|
ability to filter on any message part. It is quite compatible with
|
2012-05-08 05:07:31 +02:00
|
|
|
stock sysklogd and can be used as a drop-in replacement. Its advanced
|
|
|
|
features make it suitable for enterprise-class, encryption protected
|
|
|
|
syslog relay chains while at the same time being very easy to setup

This package will conflict with sysklogd - in other words, you *need*
|
|
|
|
to remove sysklogd before installing rsyslog.
