[TriLUG] syslog and related projects

[Shawn Hood]

Hey all,

I have seen some traffic on the list in the past regarding syslog,
syslog-ng, and related applications like splunk, epylog,
php-syslog-ng, etc.  The threads never seemed to get much traffic, and
I'm a veritable fan of peer opinion.  That said, what is going on in
the syslog realm?  It seems like most projects that are in this niche
are abandoned or immature.  What are the strategies used by trilug
members to reliably aggregate, parse, and understand your log data?
