2004-01-04Buffered logging for syslogd. Logs may be stored in memory buffers andDamien Miller
extracted using a small client. Useful for diskless systems. much feedback from deraadt@, canacar@, jmc@, jakob@ ; ok deraadt@
2003-07-31Privilege separated syslog daemon. The child listening to log requests dropsAnil Madhavapeddy
to user _syslogd and chroots itself, while the privileged parent grants it access to open logfiles and other calls it needs. The only difference from existing behaviour is that if syslog.conf changes and syslogd receives a HUP, it will re-exec itself and have two new PIDs. A HUP with an unchanged config will make syslogd reopen logfiles as before. Lots of help and code from deraadt@ , and advice from millert@ Various versions tested by todd, cloder, mpech, markus, tdeval and others
