  • better error messages in GuardTime signature provider
    Thanks to Ahto Truu for providing the patch.
  • make rsyslog use the new json-c pkgconfig file if available
    Thanks to the Gentoo team for the patches.
  • bugfix: imfile parameter “persistStateInterval” was unusable
    due to a case typo in imfile; work-around was to use legacy config
    Thanks to Brandon Murphy for reporting this bug.
  • bugfix: TLV16 flag encoding error in signature files from GT provider
    This fixes a problem where the TLV16 flag was improperly encoded. Unfortunately, existing files already have the bug and may not properly be processed. The fix uses constants from the GuardTime API lib to prevent such problems in the future.
    Thanks to Ahto Truu for providing the patch.

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/
