DESCRIPTION:
A new stable version of syslog-ng Agent for Windows (3.0.5) has been
released. For latest fixes in the 3.0.x branch you are recommended to

CHANGES:
Core:
* The mapping of event types to event severity levels handled certain
event types incorrectly on the Windows Vista and Windows 2008
platforms, causing problems when filtering on the severity level
of the messages.
This has been corrected.
* Certain event log parameters were not processed properly on the
Windows 2003 platform. This has been corrected.
* The syslog-ng Agent terminated unexpectedly in some situations when
it was started manually from the Windows Services control panel.
This has been corrected.
HOW TO UPGRADE
* When upgrading a machine running version 3.0.3 or later in standalone
mode,run the .exe installer and verify that the displayed information
is correct.
* When upgrading a machine running version 3.0.3 or later in domain
mode, follow the steps described in section 'Installing the syslog-ng
agent on the hosts of a domain' of the documentation.
The system will automatically recognize that the new package will
update the syslog-ng Agent for Windows version 3.0.5 package.
