hi Martin,

the FAQ entry has been updated as promised:

Also, thank you David for providing a reminder about the hup.signal option
-- I've included it in the FAQ example.

kind regards,
risto

> hi Martin,
> that's a very good question. Since you want to avoid creating an extra
> file on disk, the best communication option is a pipe from rsyslog to sec.
> The rsyslog's omprog module allows for running another program and feeding
> events to the standard input of the program through a pipe. In the sec FAQ,
> there is a relevant entry for rsyslog v5 which provides a simple
> configuration example:
> http://simple-evcorr.github.io/FAQ.html#2
>
> It is important to note that sec has to be started with the --notail
> option from rsyslog, for example:
> sec --conf=/etc/sec/sec.conf --notail --input=-
>
> The --notail option ensures that when rsyslog closes the write end of the
> pipe, the sec process will terminate. Without --notail, many redundant sec
> processes can accumulate over time which have to be taken down manually.
>
> Also, since the FAQ entry covers an older version of rsyslog, I'll try to
> update it for rsyslog v8 during the next couple of days.
