Hi,
I just noticed that 11.2 uses rsyslog instead of syslog-ng that was used previously. What is the advantage? The syntax is rather weird.
That's a coincidence - I have just recently been reading up on rsyslog, but I hadn't noticed that it was already in 11.2. Comparison of rsyslog / syslog-ng: http://www.rsyslog.com/doc-rsyslog_ng_comparison.html
From my point of view, the advantages are (roughly):
- it's multithreaded - support for include files in the config - guaranteed delivery in a central logging setup. There are no doubt others, but those are the ones that I'm interested in. I think(!) rsyslog might perform better in a high-load environment. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (8.9°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
