{ type: install
message: <<EOM
syslog-ng is now installed! To replace FreeBSD's standard syslogd
(/usr/sbin/syslogd), complete these steps:
1. Create a configuration file named %%PREFIX%%/etc/syslog-ng.conf
(a sample named syslog-ng.conf.sample has been included in
%%PREFIX%%/etc). Note that this is a change in 2.0.2
version, previous ones put the config file in
%%PREFIX%%/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf, so if this is an update
move that file in the right place
2. Configure syslog-ng to start automatically by adding the following
to /etc/rc.conf:
syslog_ng_enable="YES"
3. Prevent the standard FreeBSD syslogd from starting automatically by
adding a line to the end of your /etc/rc.conf file that reads:
syslogd_enable="NO"
4. Shut down the standard FreeBSD syslogd:
kill `cat /var/run/syslog.pid`
5. Start syslog-ng:
%%PREFIX%%/etc/rc.d/syslog-ng start

{ type: upgrade
maximum_version: "3.29.1"
message: <<EOM
When upgrading from before 3.29.1 these variables, if used, should be replaced:
* syslog_ng_flags replaces syslog_ng_config (syslog_ng_config still works),
* syslog_ng_pidfile replaces syslog_ng_pid (syslog_ng_pid still works).
