.SH NAME
|
|
rsyslog.conf \- rsyslogd(8) configuration file
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.I rsyslog.conf
|
|
file is the main configuration file for the
|
|
.BR rsyslogd (8)
|
|
which logs system messages on *nix systems. This file specifies rules
|
|
for logging. For special features see the
|
|
.BR rsyslogd (8)
|
|
manpage.
|
|
|
|
While rsyslogd contains enhancements over standard syslogd, efforts
|
|
have been made to keep the configuration file as compatible as
|
|
possible. While, for obvious reasons, enhanced features require
|
|
a different config file syntax, rsyslogd should be able to work with
|
|
a standard syslog.conf file. This is especially useful while you
|
|
are migrating from syslogd to rsyslogd.
|
|
|
|
This man page is now a stub. Full documentation can be found in
|
|
the doc folder of the rsyslog distribution. If in doubt, you
|
|
can also view it online at
|
|
