Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist socklog cooperates with the runit package to create a small and secure replacement for syslogd. socklog supports system logging through Unix domain sockets (/dev/log) and UDP sockets (0.0.0.0:514) with the help of runit's runsvdir, runsv, and svlogd. socklog provides a different network logging concept, and also does log event notification. svlogd has built in log file rotation based on file size, so there is no need for any cron jobs to rotate the logs. socklog is small, secure, and reliable.
See http://smarden.org/socklog/ for more information. I'm also the upstream author, the license is a BSD three-clause license. The release 1.0.0 of socklog cooperates with the daemontools package instead of the runit package. I'm currently preparing a new testing package which doesn't depend on daemontools.
