3.6.0beta2

This is the second beta release of the upcoming syslog-ng OSE 3.6 branch. Compared to the previous beta, this release contains a few minor features and bugfixes. We expect the next release to be a release candidate, focusing on stability and bugfixes. Testing is most appreciated!

Features

• It is now possible to load not only a single certificate when using TLS, but a certificate chain.
• The system() source will not include /dev/kmsg (or /proc/kmsg) when running inside a Linux container.

Bugfixes

• The in-list() filter was fixed to look at all elements of the list, instead of only the last one.
• Fixed an assertion when using the match() filter under certain circumstances.
• The system() source will not add /dev/kmsg (or /proc/kmsg on older kernels) to the default sources if using the systemd journal, because kernel logs are included in the journal.
