Description Jan Vansteenkiste 2006-01-03 06:07:30 UTC

This patch adds the capability to syslog-ng that allows you to strip out any given regular expression or all IP addresses from log messages before they are written to disk. The goal is to give the system administrator the means to implement site logging policies by allowing them easy control over exactly what data they retain in their logfiles, regardless of what a particular daemon might think is best.

pretty sure this could be done using the pipe() stuff via the config file anyhow.

marking WONTFIX
