NEWS

FreeBSD audit source for syslog-ng
----------------------------------
Two weeks ago, I was at EuroBSDcon and received a feature request for syslo=
g-ng. The user wanted to collect FreeBSD audit logs together with other log=
s using syslog-ng. Writing a native driver in C is time consuming. However,=
 creating an integration based on the program() source of syslog-ng is not =
that difficult. This blog shows you the current state of the FreeBSD audit =
source, how it works, and its limitations. It is also a request for feedbac=
k. =

Version 4.8.1 of syslog-ng is now available
-------------------------------------------
Version 4.8.1 was released recently. As you could guess from the version nu=
mber change, it is primarily a bug fix release, but some minor features als=
o slipped in. From this blog, you can learn what changed in syslog-ng 4.8.1=
 and where you can get its latest stable version.

Where should I present syslog-ng and sudo?
------------------------------------------
Recently I was asked the same question both at my workplace and at EuroBSDC=
on, the conference where I was presenting: where do you talk next? I had no=
 definite answer. Of course, I am looking forward to the FOSDEM CfP, but I =
am also looking for new conferences to present syslog-ng and sudo. Do you h=
ave any recommendations?
