Hello,<br>
<br>
I just sent out the syslog-ng newsletter a few days ago, but there
are already fresh news. But first of all: If you got 1 minute,
please fill our
syslog-ng performance survey at
<a href="https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/6ZQDVH6">https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/6ZQDVH6</a><br>
<br>
<style type="text/css">p { margin-bottom: 0.08in; }a:link { }</style>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">There was a new release of syslog-ng
OSE 3.3 last weekend, it's now at beta2. FreeBSD ports was the
first
to add support for it, and now here are the openSUSE packages for
testing:
<a
href="http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/czanik:/syslog-ng33/">http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/czanik:/syslog-ng33/</a>
or if more interested in package sources, then check
<a
href="https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=home%3Aczanik%3Asyslog-ng33">https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=home%3Aczanik%3Asyslog-ng33</a>
where these packages were built.<br>
Systemd support is being reworked in
openSUSE, so please stick to sysvinit (which is the default) when
testing these packages. There is one known problem affecting
functionality: mongodb support is broken. It's already fixed in
git,
so it will be part of the next release, or if there is a request
for
it, I can add the patch to the beta2 package.<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I just found a nice introductory
article about syslog-ng at Linux Journal, which describes the
basics
and also some more interesting topics and provides good
explanations.
You can read it at
<a
href="http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/creating-centralized-syslog-server">http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/creating-centralized-syslog-server</a>
It was written on Debian, but most information should apply to any
Linux distribution.</p>
