  1. Note: my first UDF. This allows sending (BSD) messages to a syslog server using UDP. It has been tested with SnmpSoft Syslog Watcher, Synology DSM 4.2 and DSM 6.0, Kiwi Syslog Server. Uses the BSD syslog protocol (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3164), except for Facility and Severity levels, which incorporates the extended (newer) values as well. To the best of my knowledge, this is how most basic syslog senders do it today anyway. Target IP, Facility, Severity level, Tag, Hostname, Port can be specified. Also includes a ping feature to give an error if server doesn't respond. Feedback appreciated. #include-once Global $__SyslogSendPing ; this allows global access to the ping result (in ms) Global $__SyslogSendPacket ; this allows global access to the entire syslog packet: PRI, HEADER and MSG. ; #FUNCTION# ==================================================================================================================== ; Name ..........: SyslogSend v1.0.3 ; Modified ......: 2018.10.09 ; Changelog......: v1.0.2 fixed $MDAY formatting, leading zero would not be correctly replaced by a space ; v1.0.3 added debug console output when packet is sent. Set global variable $_D=True to show debug output. ; Description ...: Sends syslog messages to a syslog server using UDP ; Syntax ........: SyslogSend($_Message, $_Target, $_Port, $_Facility, $_Severity, $_Tag, $_HostName) ; Parameters ....: $_Message - Text message to send. https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-syslog-protocol-23#section-6.4 ; $_Target - [optional] Target IP or host (IPv4 address or hostname). Default is "127.0.0.1". ; $_Facility - [optional] Facility value (integer 0..23). Default is 1. https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-syslog-protocol-23#section-6.2.1 ; $_Severity - [optional] Severity level (integer 0..7). Default is 7. https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-syslog-protocol-23#section-6.2.1 ; $_Tag - [optional] Name of program or process (a-zA-Z0-9). https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3164#section-4.1.3 ; $_HostName - [optional] Originator hostname. Default is @ComputerName. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3164#section-4.1.2 ; $_Port - [optional] UDP port number (integer 0..65535). Default is 514. ; $_Ping - [optional] Ping the host before sending, with value as timeout. Function will exit and return an ; error message if host did not respond. Default is 0 (no ping). ; Return values .: 0 = Success ; Non-zero = error text message ; Author ........: Irios ; Remarks .......: Uses UDP only, and sticks to the BSD syslog protocol (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3164), except for Facility ; and Severity levels, which incorporates the extended (newer) values as well. To the best of my knowledge, this ; is how most basic syslog senders do it today anyway. The syslog protocol does not provide acknowledgement of message ; delivery, the ping feature is for convenience only. Most syslog servers will use the first word in the MSG field as ; TAG if you do not specify a tag yourself. This is by design, and not a bug. ; Example .......: SyslogSend("A test message", "192.168.0.1", 514, 3, 5, "SyslogSend", "fooServer", 1000) ; This would send the text string "<29> Oct 1 00:36:23 fooServer SyslogSend: A test message" to host 192.168.0.1:514 (including a ping, 1000ms timeout). ; ; =============================================================================================================================== Func SyslogSend($_Message, $_Target = "127.0.0.1", $_Facility = 1, $_Severity = 7, $_Tag = "", $_HostName = @ComputerName, $_Port = 514, $_Ping = 0) Local $_UDPStartup = False If (StringStripWS($_Message, 8) = "") Then Return "Error.
