The rocket-fast system for log processing

rsyslog 7.5.1 (v7-devel) released

By Adiscon SupportPosted on Posted in News, Release AnnouncementTagged , , , , , , , , , ,

This release opens the new 7.5 development branch. Most importantly, this version provides certificate-based authentication for RELP. It also includes mmfields, a module that can be used to parse CEF and other similar delimited formats. BSD-support has been improved and imjournal has been hardened to prevent corrupt journal databases from spamming the system too much. More information about configuring the certificate-based authentication for RELP: http://www.rsyslog.com/using-tls-with-relp/

Changelog for 7.5.1 (v7-devel)

By Adiscon SupportPosted on Posted in ChangelogTagged , , , , , , , , , ,

Version 7.5.1 [devel] 2013-06-26

  • librelp 1.1.3 is required – older versions can lead to a segfault
  • add mmfields, which among others supports easy parsing of CEF messages
  • omrelp:
    * new parameter “compression.prioritystring” to control encryption parameters used by GnuTLS
  • imrelp:
    * new parameter “compression.dhbits” to control the number of bits being used for Diffie-Hellman key generation
    * new parameter “compression.prioritystring” to control encryption parameters used by GnuTLS
    * support for impstats added
    * support for setting permitted peers (client authentication) added
    * bugfix: potential segfault at startup on invalid config parameters
  • imjournal: imported patches from 7.4.1
  • omprog: add support for command line parameters
  • added experimental TCP stream compression (imptcp only, currently)
  • added BSD-specific syslog facilities
    * “console”
    * “bsd_security” – this is called “security” under BSD, but that name was unfortunately already taken by some standard facility. So I did the (hopefully) second-best thing and renamed it a little.
  • imported fixes from 7.4.2 (especially build problems on FreeBSD)
  • bugfix: imptcp did not properly initialize compression status variable could lead to segfault if stream:always compression mode was selected
