Andrew Pantyukhin b9b5b02aa2 Add rsyslog 3.x to ports:
Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd supporting, among
others, syslog/tcp, permitted sender lists, filtering on any message
part, and fine grain output format control.  Its advanced features
make it suitable for enterprise-class, encryption protected syslog
relay chains while at the same time being very easy to setup for the
novice user.

The following features are supported through modules: logging to
MySQL, PostgreSQL, any libdbi-supported backend; SNMP trap sender, GSS
API, RELP.

===================================================================
To start using rsyslogd(8), stop syslogd(8) if it's running and
add the following lines to rc.conf(5):
syslogd_enable="NO"
rsyslogd_enable="YES"
It's recommended to copy syslog.conf(5) to
%%PREFIX%%/etc/rsyslog.conf and edit it there. Otherwise add
this:
rsyslogd_config="/etc/syslog.conf"
newsyslog(8) has the path of syslogd's pid file hardcoded. To
make it work seamlessly with rsyslog, add this:
rsyslogd_pidfile="/var/run/syslog.pid"
