Logger for Windows released as Freeware

Grossrinderfeld, 2005-04-14.

Adiscon today released logger for Windows 1.2 as freeware. "I am proud to announce a freeware tool for the logging community", says president Rainer Gerhards. "We are always trying hard to support the community with the best available tools at the best price. We now have been able to release this  tool as freeware thanks to our loyal customers. Our goal is to provide good value at the lowest possible cost. We hope to fund development by paid support options, an alternative we consider for some of our tools, most importantly those that we have begun to offer in the open-source world (e.g. rsyslog, liblogging).".

Among its re-positioning as freeware, Adiscon logger offers an important new feature: the ability to send messages via plain tcp syslog. To use this feature, you need a plain tcp capabale syslog server, as are Adiscon's products under Windows as well as for example syslog-ng in the Unix/Linux world.

Adiscon logger is an enhanced UNIX-like logger command line tool. To learn more about it (and to download it), visit Adiscon's logger for Windows home page.
