[syslog-ng][PATCH] netmask-filter

Hi everybody, I have implemented a new filter for syslog-ng. You can now filter log messages based on their sender's IP address like this: # match a single host filter f_noc21 { netmask("134.130.3.73"); }; # match a whole subnet filter f_noc { netmask("134.130.3.0/255.255.255.0"); }; I'll attach patches for syslog-ng versions 1.4.14 and 1.5.13. I have also made a small patch that fixes the behaviour of the emulated inet_aton function in utils.c. (It would not work with "255.255.255.255".) On some architectures you need this patch for my netmask-filter to work properly! Have fun and tell me what you think about it! Greetings Gert
