GSoC 2015: syslog-ng as a command line tool
Hello, I'm Máté Eckl and I study IT engineering at the BME (I'm in my second semester). I studied C in the first semester, but I had prior experience with it. I also have experience on different programming languages, basics of networking (eg.: building a secondary DNS server for the college this spring), I use Linux (Ubuntu and Arch) and I'm familiar with getopt and the mechanism of command-line arguments. Earlier this semester I needed to prepare a basic syslog-ng configuration on a logging server, so I have slight knowledge about the system, but in the college I have great opportunity to get deeper inside it until the end of the semester. I'm really interested in this project, but the functionality is not really clear for me. What should the log messages be transformed to? Do you mean it to be a sort of debug session, where you can test the rules you want to apply in the config files? Or something else? Could you describe it to me a bit more precisely? Best regards, Máté Eckl
