Dear syslog-ng users,
This is the 124th issue of syslog-ng Insider, a monthly newsletter that brings you syslog-ng-related news.
NEWS
Version 4.8.0 of syslog-ng improves FreeBSD and MacOS support
Recently One Identity released version 4.8.0 of its open-source log management application. Learn about some of the new features and bug fixes: why upgrade to the latest syslog-ng version, not only on FreeBSD :-)
Why it is useful to set the version number in the syslog-ng configuration
The syslog-ng configuration starts with a version number declaration. Up until recently, if it was missing, syslog-ng did not start. With syslog-ng 4.8, this is changing. From this blog, you can learn why version information is useful, what workaround you can use if you do not want to edit your syslog-ng configuration on each update, and what changed in version 4.8.
We are switching syslog-ng containers from Debian Testing to Stable
For many years, the official syslog-ng container and development containers were based on Debian Testing. We are switching to Debian Stable now. Learn about the history and the reasons for the change now.
