Red Hat

From rsyslog wiki

RPM packages are currently being created by Peter Vrabec of Red Hat. There location is contained in the official package doc.

RHEL5 doesn't currently include a selinux policy that knows about the rsyslog binaries, so when installing these packages on RHEL5, you'll also need to modify the selinux labeling rules to get the binaries installed with the right labels. (It would be nice if this was fixed in the rsyslog rpm.)

As of RHEL 5.2 Red Hat provides a rsyslog package. It probably has the proper selinux labeling rules (yet unconfirmed information).

# rpm -Uvh rsyslog*rpm
# semanage fcontext -a -t syslogd_exec_t /sbin/rsyslogd
# semanage fcontext -a -t klogd_exec_t /sbin/rklogd
# restorecon /sbin/rsyslogd /sbin/rklogd
# /etc/init.d/rsyslog restart
