Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH v2 8/8] syslog-ng: add logging configuration file
Date: Fri, 28 Sep 2018 23:50:06 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180929025006.8296-8-casantos@datacom.com.br> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180929025006.8296-1-casantos@datacom.com.br>

Provide a template to help users to customize syslog-ng without editting
the startup script. Mostly warn about options that must not be used.

This file is also useful as an example for init script authors.
