It would be nice if something was done about the current syslog.
The last time I used it for centralized logging, things didn't quite turn out
like I hoped. Solaris' syslog is limited, delicate, and only supports UDP.
Also, I found a bug where the workaround was in an email from 1994 or 1996. O

Wouldn't it be better to use SMF for that now instead of a custom door
solution for just that one service?

Saw someone in opensolaris-help having trouble building syslog-ng,
and it got me to wondering why that hasn't been integrated (perhaps
with any changes needed to support doors rather than a Unix domain
socket for local communication).
AFAIK, the existing syslog has a lot less functionality. Aside
I was able to compile and install it using http://pkgbuild.sourceforge.net/
a) Install SFE environment and build pkgtool and cd
/path/to/build/of/packages/spec-files-extra.2009116
b) pkgtool build-only --svr4 --download --autodeps --interactive

Hi,
Is syslog-ng available for OpenSolaris, through IPS or otherwise? If
I were to build it, is there an "easy" metapackage for the build
system, maybe analogous to Red Hat's rpmbuild+dependencies or Debian's
"build-essential" metapackage?
Thanks!
