Description-en: system and kernel logging services - runit services
socklog cooperates with the runit package to create a small and
secure replacement for rsyslog. socklog supports system logging
through Unix domain sockets (/dev/log), UDP sockets (0.0.0.0:514), as
well as TCP socket, with the help of runit's runsvdir, runsv, and
svlogd. socklog provides a different network logging concept, and
also does log event notification. svlogd has built in log file
rotation based on file size, so there is no need for any cron jobs to
rotate the logs. socklog is small, secure, and reliable.
.
This package includes the configuration files to run socklog under
runit supervision as system and kernel log daemons. The socklog-unix
and socklog-klog services are enabled by default. The socklog-inet,
socklog-notify, and socklog-ucspi-tcp services are examples and
disabled by default.
