There\'s a wiki at rsylog\'s site on solairs that mentions using opencsw tools for building - http://wiki.rsyslog.com/index.php/Solaris, but I\'m not a good package maintainer and I\'m not deep in the SMF stuff.  I\'ve got both sparc and x64 platforms to deal with.  I hope I\'m not the only one who\'s ever asked for this, but it would be nice to get all my systems running the same syslog daemon.

There is a recent rsyslog package in our unstable catalog already:
http://www.opencsw.org/packages/rsyslog/

We'll hopefully be able to move it to the dublin catalog in the near
future but we're currently working our way through a large ssl
rebuilding/relinking project.

Thanks
