[syslog-ng] What testing has been done for the new features in open source version of syslog-ng version 3.x

[Janani Janakiraman]

Appreciate your reply. I do see some tests in the syslog-ng source and
wanted to find out if there is any other test suite that is run against the
builds. Since there is a paid version and an open source version, I wanted
to find out what benefit I get by going to the paid version.

Hi Janani,

I am sorry, but I don't really understand you. Nevertheless, I am trying to
answer you.
First of all, what kind of tests have you thought? Of course, we have
tested the syslog protocol of the syslog-ng and it worked. If you have any
question about this protocol, or found a bug, don't hesitate to tell us it.

Also, we have installer packages for the following platforms, as you can
see:
                                         
 debian-etch-amd64 Directory  2009-12-07 
                                         
 debian-etch-i386  Directory  2009-12-07 
                                         
 freebsd-6.1-i386  Directory  2009-12-07 
                                         
 linux-amd64       Directory  2009-12-07 
                                         
 linux-i386        Directory  2009-12-07 
                                         
 rhel-4-amd64      Directory  2009-12-07 
                                         
 rhel-4-i386       Directory  2009-12-07 
                                         
 rhel-5-amd64      Directory  2009-12-07 
                                         
 rhel-5-i386       Directory  2009-12-07 
                                         
 suse-10-i386      Directory  2009-12-07 
                                         



This is just a list from our website (
http://www.balabit.com/downloads/files/syslog-ng/sources/3.0.5/setups/).
Also, you can download the source code of syslog-ng and try to compile for
your platform by manual.

      I am trying to judge the level of confidence for the latest stable
      open-source version of syslog-ng version 3.0.5. Where can I find the
      test results of the tests that have been run again version 3.0.5 of
      syslog-ng? I want to find out if tests have been run to test the new
      features in Version 3.x specifically support for the new IETF-syslog
      protocol standard ( RFC5424 ). Do any of the major Linux distros
      support version 3.x of syslog-ng?

      Thanks,
      Janani
