syslog-ng

In the lead since 1998

A good logging infrastructure is a key element in the network security of companies. Development of syslog-ng had started when no tool existed that could satisfy the requirements of organizations maintaining large IT networks. syslog-ng (ng: New Generation) is an alternative for syslogd - the default system logger component of Unix systems - and has solved the problems of tens of thousands of organizations, ranging from industrial companies to governmental institutes. syslog-ng has been the most widespread alternative system logging application of the Unix/Linux world for the last ten years.
