I just began, more outstanding... But it looks like that easy solution
is the right one - thanks!

Good to hear ;) And, believe it or not, I never ever installed
syslog-ng. But,of course, it's the primary competitor in this space.
IMHO we are now far ahead of it (I guess you already know that chart,
but...):

Bazsi seem currently to brew something in regard to the log store, which
is not (yet ;)) my priority. Also I don't think it helps to
cryptographically sign the store (at least for court), the message
itself must be signed (that's my route on that). So we will probably see
a few features in the *paid* edition of syslog-ng that rsyslog does not
yet have. Even with that, and even compared to the paid edition, I think
we are now far ahead.

rsyslog's config file syntax is just plain ugly. No way around. But wait
a bit, I am working on a scripting engine:

Neither of them - just the boring stuff ;)
