Changelog for rsyslog version 0.9.0 (RGer)
changed the filed structure to be a linked list. Previously, it
was a table - well, for non-SYSV it was defined as linked list,
but from what I see that code did no longer work after my
modifications. I am now using a linked list in general because
that is needed for other upcoming modifications.
fixed a bug that caused rsyslogd not to listen to anything if
the configuration file could not be read
previous versions disabled network logging (send/receive) if
syslog/udp port was not in /etc/services. Now defaulting to
port 514 in this case.
internal error messages are now supported up to 256 bytes
error message seen during config file read are now also displayed
to the attached tty and not only the console
changed some error messages during init to be sent to the console
and/or emergency log. Previously, they were only seen if the
-d (debug) option was present on the command line.
fixed the "2gb file issue on 32bit systems". If a file grew to
more than 2gb, the syslogd was aborted with "file size exceeded".
Now, defines have been added according to http://www.daimi.au.dk/~kasperd/comp.os.linux.development.faq.html#LARGEFILE Testing revealed that they work ;)
HOWEVER, if your file system, glibc, kernel, whatever does not
support files larger 2gb, you need to set a file size limit with
the new output channel mechanism.
updated man pages to reflect the changes
