From rgerhards at hq.adiscon.com Wed Feb 1 11:01:22 2006 From: rgerhards at hq.adiscon.com (Rainer Gerhards) Date: Wed, 1 Feb 2006 11:01:22 +0100 Subject: [rsyslog] rsyslog 1.0.4 released (stable branch) Message-ID: <577465F99B41C842AAFBE9ED71E70ABA0E435F@grfint2.intern.adiscon.com> Hi all, I have just released rsyslog 1.0.4. This is a maintenance release with just a single fix: there were some printfs from the debugging aid left over. They appear each time a message is received via TCP. Obviously, this may cause performance problems on busy systems. Please note that this affects the TCP receiver only, so if you are only using local sockets or UDP, you are not affected by this bug. The new release can be downloaded form http://download.adiscon.com/rsyslog/rsyslog-1.0.4.tar.gz I plan to release a new development branch soon, too. You can also fix your existing 1.0.3 release by removing these lines from syslogd.c: 899: printf("## in loop\n"); 917: printf("## record delim found\n"); All the best, Rainer Gerhards From rgerhards at hq.adiscon.com Wed Feb 15 10:49:04 2006 From: rgerhards at hq.adiscon.com (Rainer Gerhards) Date: Wed, 15 Feb 2006 10:49:04 +0100 Subject: [rsyslog] rsyslog 1.12.2 released Message-ID: <577465F99B41C842AAFBE9ED71E70ABA0E448F@grfint2.intern.adiscon.com> Hello all, I am glad to announce that rsyslog 1.12.2 has finally been released. This release offers an even smarter message parser that detects more syslog header formats. Unfortunately, there is a large variety in header formatting among the diffent syslogds, and rsyslog now does an even finer job at guessing how the message is formatted. Also, the release contains support for the upcoming IETF syslog-protocol message format standard. As currently no other syslogd supports it, this is more or less a theoretical feature, but eventually it is nice to know we already have it ;) There are also some other changes. The complete change log can be viewed at http://www.rsyslog.com/Article56.phtml The (download-count tracking) download URL is http://www.rsyslog.com/Downloads-index-req-getit-lid-27.phtml [should that not work for you, the direct link is http://download.adiscon.com/rsyslog/rsyslog-1.12.2.tar.gz] I hope this release if useful. As always, feedback is appreciated.
