Package: wnpp
Version: unavailable; reported 2002-10-18
Severity: normal
* Package name: msyslog
Version: 1.08a-5
Upstream Author: Alejo Sanchez <alejos@velocom.com.ar>, Fredrick Paul Eisele <phreed@debian.org>
* URL: http:///sourceforge.net/projects/msyslog/
* License: (BSD)
Description:
Replacement for sysklogd.
.
Contains the syslogd daemon that gathers messages from various
sources and routes them according to its configuration. The
code for input and output is entirely in modules, this makes
it incredibly flexible and extensible.
.
Included input modules are:
* im_unix: old syslog's local method.
* im_linux: read kernel log messages.
* im_udp: old syslog's remote method.
* im_tcp: TCP remote logging.
...new...
* im_file: read messages from a regular file.
.
Included output modules are:
* om_classic: logging to files, programs, terminals (users) or
UDP (network, for im_udp). Ie everything old syslog did.
* om_tcp: TCP remote logging.
* om_peo: cryptographically protects your logfiles so you know
if somebody manipulated them even if the intruder became root.
* om_regex: Filtering of messages by regular expressions.
* om_mysql: Logging to a remote MySQL database (needs libmysqlclient10).
* om_pgsql: Logging to a remote PostgreSQL database (needs libpgsql2.1).
...new...
* om_refract: a refraction filter that prevents to frequent refiring.
* om_directory: each message is written to a separate file in a directory.
.
