BSD syslog daemon with syslog()/syslogp() API replacement for Linux, RFC3164 + RFC5424
The following static build failure is raised when building logger tool with gcc 11 because `openlog`, `vsyslog`, `syslog`, `closelog` and `setlogmask` are already defined in libc: ``` /home/autobuild/autobuild/instance-9/output-1/per-package/sysklogd/host/bin/../lib/gcc/m68k-buildroot-linux-uclibc/11.3.0/../../../../m68k-buildroot-linux-uclibc/bin/ld: /home/autobuild/autobuild/instance-9/output-1/per-package/sysklogd/host/m68k-buildroot-linux-uclibc/sysroot/usr/lib/libc.a(syslog.os): in...
NetBSD syslogd has support for signed syslog messages according to https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5848, this would be highly desirable for easily securing syslog without having the full blown TLS support.
When a remote target is configured and networking is not yet up we drop messages and retry with the next message. For some use-cases this is not good enough. NetBSD...
NetBSD syslogd supports TLS transport for remote messages, as defined in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5425. This feature could be added after issue #21.
**DISCLAIMER: Nothing fatal, just nice to become fixed _if_ confirmed. :-)** Upgrade from 2.5.0: ``` 2023-12-16T14:20:00.572539+01:00 qeporkak rc.syslog 9623 - - syslogd[821] v2.5.0: exiting on signal 15. 2023-12-16T14:20:00.585404+01:00 qeporkak syslogd...
Please add support for `strftime(3)`-like format specifiers in log file name so one can use templates like `/var/log/messages-%F` in `/etc/syslog.conf` and doesn't have to use `logrotate(3)` (except corner cases, e.g....
Some tests, like `test/facility.sh`, use hard-coded sleep statements to ensure that prior operations finish. While running the test suite of sysklogd inside a heavily CPU-limited podman container, a few tests...
When setting up `syslogd` to act as a remote server for other devices on a network you often want to group logs from a sender to a separate log file....
