Uploading sysklogd 1.3-16 (source i386) to master
Good morning folks,
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Date: 16 Jun 97 9:52:49 UT
Format: 1.5
Distribution: unstable stable
Binary: sysklogd
Source: sysklogd
Architecture: source i386
Version: 1.3-16
Maintainer: Martin Schulze <joey@debian.org>
Description: Kernel and system logging daemons.
This package implements two system log daemons. The syslogd daemon is
an enhanced version of the standard Berkeley utility program. This
daemon is responsible for providing logging of messages received from
programs and facilities on the local host as well as from remote hosts.
.
The klogd daemon listens to kernel message sources and is responsible
for prioritizing and processing operating system messages. The klogd
daemon can run as a client of syslogd or optionally as a standalone
program. Klogd can now be used to decode EIP addresses if it can
determine a System.map file.
Priority: Routine
