(rsyslog? syslog-ng? or default?) X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 07 Jan 2011 21:39:05 -0000 I have some boxes (about 40) that I was tasked with creating a centralized logging infrastructure for. I see in ports that we have several different versions of rsyslog, and syslog-ng. Is there any reason to use one or the other? Or should I just use the syslog that come with the base OS? thanks, Alex
