Currently a lot of work is going on with rsyslog. Thus, we already have another *major* feature introduced: rsyslog has now the capability to generate output file names based on templates. This feature was often discussed and is now implemented in a very high-performance way.

If you would like to split log files based on the originator host, you can now do that with just one selector line. All you need to define is a template that has the host property in it and assign that template to the file action. A sample would be:
Besides this major enhancement, control for output file permissions have been increased and some minor things be added/changed. Please see the change log for details.
