Changelog for 7.3.7 (v7-devel)

Version 7.3.7  [devel] 2013-03-12

  • add support for anonymizing IPv4 addresses
  • add support for writing to the Linux Journal (omjournal)
  • imuxsock: add capability to ignore messages from ourselves
    This helps prevent message routing loops, and is vital to have if omjournal is used together with traditional syslog.
  • field() function now supports a string as field delimiter
  • added ability to configure debug system via rsyslog.conf
  • bugfix: imuxsock segfault when system log socket was used
  • bugfix: mmjsonparse segfault if new-style config was used
  • bugfix: script == comparison did not work properly on JSON objects
  • bugfix: field() function did never return “***FIELD NOT FOUND***”
    instead it returned “***ERROR in field() FUNCTION***” in that case
