<h1>Welcome to rsyslog</h1>
|
|
<p><b><a href="http://www.rsyslog.com/">Rsyslog</a>
|
|
is an enhanced syslogd suitable both for small systems as
|
|
well as large enterprises.</b>
|
|
<p>This page provide a few quick pointers which hopefully make your
|
|
experience with rsyslog a pleasant one. These are
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><b>Most importantly, the <a href="manual.html">rsyslog manual</a></b> - this points to locally
|
|
installed documentation which exactly matches the version you have installed.
|
|
It is highly suggested to at least briefly look over these files.
|
|
<li>The <a href="http://www.rsyslog.com">rsyslog web site</a> which offers
|
|
probably every information you'll ever need (ok, just kidding...).
|
|
<li>The <a href="http://www.rsyslog.com/doc-status.html">project status page</a> provides
|
|
information on current releases
|
|
<li>and the <a href="troubleshoot.html">troubleshooting guide</a> hopefully helps if
|
|
things do not immediately work out
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>In general, rsyslog supports plain old syslog.conf format, except that the
|
|
config file is now called rsyslog.conf. This should help you get started
|
|
quickly.
|
|
To do the really cool things, though,
|
|
you need to learn a bit about its new features.
|
|
The man pages offer a bare minimum of information (and are still quite long). Read the
|
|
<a href="manual.html">html documentation</a> instead.
|
|
When you change the configuration,
|
|
remember to restart (or HUP) rsyslogd, because otherwise it won't use your
|
|
new settings (and you'll end up totally puzzled why this great config of yours
|
|
does not even work a bit...;))
