Problem with rsyslog etc. on 24.04.4 LTS #2404 #rsyslog

https://askubuntu.com/q/1566308/612

Why do I continue to maintain #sysklogd on Linux when there's #rsyslog and #syslogng?

I believe what sysklogd has going for it is exactly what the competitors sacrificed: simplicity, a tiny footprint, zero dependencies beyond libc, and a config file a human can read in five minutes. On embedded systems, routers, and appliances that's not a consolation prize — it's the point.

The best thing about #AI in software development is that you can see easier now which piece of software to avoid.

Next candidate is #rsyslog:

Looking into #syslog server implementations, trying to decide if I should go with #rsyslog or #syslog-ng. Apparently the maintainer (!) of rsyslog is a slop coder (see https://github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog/pull/6328). Might want to avoid rsyslog in the future, I definitely will.

If you're bored of managing your #opensource project you could also try to find new maintainers.

If you don't like to code any longer just don't do it.

What's the point, honestly

I "get it" for corporations, Microsoft, Oracle, etc they didn't do anything for the love of the craft. But why the fuck would you do this for what is supposed to be your passion project? Just... Stop doing it, find something else that makes you happy.

#ai #programming #rsyslog

Oh gods, I missed that #rsyslog went full in on AI slopping themselves. Is there an alternative fork now?

Protip: if you’re running rsyslog, restart it frequently. It was holding 25G of my /var hostage until I restarted it.

(alternately swap to something that isn’t brain-dead.)

#Arch #rsyslog

@nivrig #rsyslog is also a good choice. It is what most linux distros use nowadays.

@tanepiper @davidgerard @baldur Sort of building evidence that rsyslog is an ever-increasing liability in distributions and organisations.

#AI #rsyslog

If #rsyslog's "AI First" strategy brings the same quality of their splendid AI generated pictures from their blog to the software we are sure in for a treat! :awesome:

#AI #Linux #AISlop

Die #FrOSCon hat tatsächlich keine Vorträge im Programm, die "#AI"-Bullshit feiern. Nur zwei kritische über Offenheit und Ethik, und jetzt darf sogar @bagder mit einer Keynote über "AI"-Slop in der Softwareentwicklung ranten 🎉!

Wer lädt die #rsyslog-Leute ein ;)?

Explain it to me like I'm 5... why does a syslog service need to be "AI first"?

#rsyslog #ai #syslog

@debian following the #rsyslog AI debacle, will you be adjusting things like the social contract to disallow the use of AI in that way?

Or better put: what _is_ Debian's stance on this type of AI use?

So here we go, #systemd haters. Here's your trusty legacy tech going all in on reliable, comprehensible code!

rsyslog, up to now a crucial security tool, is on track for a series of vulnerabilities and lost functionality:

How to Setup Remote Logging with #Rsyslog on #Debian #Linux 12

https://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-setup-remote-logging-with-rsyslog-on-debian-12/

And now I have @pushover working with #rsyslog!

I've just got very basic alerts at the moment: anything "err" or worse gets sent to me, with no filtering. I'm guessing the timestamp is wrong because there's no RTC attached to this RPi3 (a tempting upgrade!), so it probably hasn't sync'd with an NTP server at this point.

RAM usage (including ramdisk) is now between 480 and 520 MB.
