Eliot, TLS vs. 3195 *was* a community request and very though decision. You can not simply change that bullet point.
Just a few quick pointers before I need to leave for a meeting: http://www.mail-archive.com/syslog%40lists.ietf.org/msg00643.html probably this: http://www.mail-archive.com/syslog%40lists.ietf.org/msg00379.html and then messages up to: http://www.mail-archive.com/syslog%40lists.ietf.org/msg00182.html This is eventually also relevant: http://www.mail-archive.com/syslog@lists.ietf.org/msg00015.html And this is probably the ultimate link, though quite time-consuming: http://www.mail-archive.com/search?q=3195%20tcp&[EMAIL PROTECTED]& start=0 Sorry for that much reading material, but this has been discussed quite controversal.
