v1.1.5
This is an node module (add-on) to work with system log daemon on unix systems. Module is tested with node.js v0.8.1 and metalog, syslog-ng 3.1.1.
Read Wiki "setMask" page for more information about how to use "setMask" functionality.
Current version is compatible to node 0.8.x and higher versions. For older nodejs versions please use node-syslog v1.0.3
Node-syslog doesn't support Darwin OS and MS Windows, but should work fine with this OSes.
