Hi,


Recently, a number of quite complex configurations came up here and on gith=
ub issues. As it turned out, these configurations could be significantly si=
mplified using the in-list() filter, one of syslog-ng=92s lesser known feat=
ures. So, if you have a long list of filters in your configuration containi=
ng IP addresses, host names, and so on, you should consider using the in-li=
st() filter. Check out my latest blog about its advantages:
