[syslog-ng] Hi everybody i'm new to the list and i have a nice gift, a little script to translate configuration :o)

[Harry Rüter]

Hi,

i'm simply happy about syslog-ng :o)

I coded a shellscript to convert configuration from
old syslog to syslog-ng.

Works well for me on Suse LINUX 9.1

Have a look at it and enjoy.

Would be nice if it would be included
in the distribution, but it's tested with 1.6.11 only,
so it necessary to test it on different
OS and distributions isn't it ?
