* Renumber copyright clause 4Warner Losh2017-02-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

* syslogd(8): add an 'include' keywordBaptiste Daroussin2016-11-011-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All the '.conf' files not beginning with a '.' contained int he directory following the keyword will be included. This keyword can only be used in the first level configuration files. Modify the default syslogd.conf to 'include' /etc/syslog.d and /usr/local/etc/syslog.d It simplify a lot handling of syslog from automation tools.

* Introduce to the !program specification a capability similar to the oneDaniel C. Sobral2002-09-231-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | that already exists for hosts: being able to specify a section that applies to every program *except* the one in question. The normal syntax for program specification is still valid. For the new capability, one uses: !-program Since there is no way to specify a program beginning with a dash in the old syntax, as it would be interpreted as the case above, the following alternative syntax to the original capability is provided: !+program This shouldn't introduce incompatibilities with any syslogd configuration in production because -stable's syslogd does not support a dash anywhere in the program specification.
