This should help you get started +quickly. +To do the really cool things, though, +you need to learn a bit about its new features. +The man pages offer a bare minimum of information (and are still quite long). Read the +<a href="manual.html">html documentation</a> instead. +When you change the configuration, +remember to restart (or HUP) rsyslogd, because otherwise it won't use your +new settings (and you'll end up totally puzzled why this great config of yours +does not even work a bit...;)) +</body></html> |
