I was under the impression that the code changes that fix the issue is : http://git.adiscon.com/?p=rsyslog.git;a=commitdiff;h=16cc84fc699fc3f830b0c28d677d6ae0daa35723 but this is missing from the 5.8.12 code. What should i look out for to know that the fix to address this issue is present in 5.8.12. Thanks, Karthik >> Karthik >> >>> >>> B.
