Package: rsyslog (5.8.11-3)

[ Source: rsyslog  ]

reliable system and kernel logging daemon

Rsyslog is a multi-threaded implementation of syslogd (a system utility providing support for message logging), with features that include:

 * reliable syslog over TCP, SSL/TLS and RELP
 * on-demand disk buffering
 * email alerting
 * writing to MySQL or PostgreSQL databases (via separate output plugins)
 * permitted sender lists
 * filtering on any part of the syslog message
 * on-the-wire message compression
 * fine-grained output format control
 * failover to backup destinations
 * enterprise-class encrypted syslog relaying

It is the default syslogd on Debian systems.
