Description

This is the sysklogd package for Linux.

The sysklogd package implements two system log daemons. The syslogd daemon is the general system logging daemon which is responsible for handling requests for syslog services. This version of syslogd is similar to the standard Berkeley product but with a number of compatible extensions. The klogd daemon runs either standalone or as a client of syslogd. Klogd 'listens' to kernel log messages, prioritizes them and routes them to either output files or to syslogd. This version of klogd will optionally translate kernel addresses to their symbolic equivalents if provided with a system map.

This is Dr. Greg W. Wettstein's version of sysklogd. It is maintained by Martin Schulze.
