<h1>RSyslog - Documentation</h1>
<p><b><a href="http://www.rsyslog.com/">Rsyslog</a>
is an enhanced syslogd
supporting, among others, <a href="rsyslog_mysql.html">MySQL</a>,
PostgreSQL, <a href="http://wiki.rsyslog.com/index.php/FailoverSyslogServer">failover
log destinations</a>, syslog/tcp, fine grain output format
control, high precision timestamps, queued operations and the ability to filter on any message
part.</b>
It is quite compatible to stock sysklogd and can be used as a drop-in
replacement. Its <a href="features.html">
advanced features</a> make it suitable for enterprise-class, <a href="rsyslog_tls.html">encryption protected syslog</a>
relay chains while at the same time being very easy to setup for the
novice user. And as we know what enterprise users really need, there is
also <a href="professional_support.html">professional
rsyslog support</a> available directly from the source!</p>
<p><b>This documentation is for version 3.21.5 (devel branch) of rsyslog.</b>
Visit the <i> <a href="http://www.rsyslog.com/doc-status.html">rsyslog status page</a></i></b> to obtain current
version information and project status.
</p><p><b>If you like rsyslog, you might
want to lend us a helping hand. </b>It doesn't require a lot of
time - even a single mouse click helps. Learn <a href="how2help.html">how to help the rsyslog project</a>.
Due to popular demand, there is now a <a href="rsyslog_ng_comparison.html">side-by-side comparison
between rsyslog and syslog-ng</a>.</p>
<p>If you are upgrading from rsyslog v2 or stock sysklogd,
<a href="v3compatibility.html">be
sure to read the rsyslog v3 compatibility document!</a> It will work even
if you do not read the doc, but doing so will definitely improve your experience.</p>

<p>Our <a href="history.html">rsyslog history</a>
page is for you if you would like to learn a little more
on why there is an rsyslog at all. If you are interested why you should
care about rsyslog at all, you may want to read Rainer's essay on "<a href="http://rgerhards.blogspot.com/2007/08/why-does-world-need-another-syslogd.html">why
the world needs another syslogd</a>".</p>
<p>Documentation is added continuously. Please note that the
documentation here
matches only the current version of rsyslog. If you use an older
version, be sure to use the doc that came with it.</p>

may find

<a href="http://rgerhards.blogspot.com/">blog</a> an
interesting read (filter on syslog and rsyslog tags).
If you would like to use rsyslog source code inside your open source project, you can do that without
any restriction as long as your license is GPLv3 compatible. If your license is incompatible to GPLv3,
you may even be still permitted to use rsyslog source code. However, then you need to look at the way
<a href="licensing.html">rsyslog is licensed</a>.</p>
<p>Feedback is always welcome, but if you have a support question, please do not
mail Rainer directly (<a href="free_support.html">why not?</a>).
