Hi Roland,

yes, this dependency is intentional, yet unfortunate.

The reason for this is, that I need to redirect certain syslog
messages to a pipe, so that the client is able to capture and evaluate
them.

In /etc/rsyslog.d/30-l2tp-ipsec-vpn.conf you'll see the following lines:
# Log xl2tpd pppd and ipsec generated log messages to a pipe
:syslogtag,contains,"xl2tpd[" |/var/log/l2tpipsecvpn.pipe
:syslogtag,contains,"pppd[" |/var/log/l2tpipsecvpn.pipe
:syslogtag,contains,"ipsec__plutorun:" |/var/log/l2tpipsecvpn.pipe


My problem is, that I don't yet know how to do this in a syslog
product independent way.

But I'm going to figure out, if klogd provides a similar functionality
and if so I could at least try to differentiate between a rsyslogd and
klogd installation.

If you have any ideas or solutions please let me know.



With kind regards,
Werner Jaeger
