The recently imposed "must be logged in" restriction is a response to increased bot traffic on the site. This affects search, commits, and vuxml pages.
Search engines are not blocked. Try using "site:www.freshports.org" and your search terms.
After the ports freeze to fix some stuff, the freeze is over. I have some work to do before FreshPorts can start processing commits again before it can start processing again. I've created an issue for that.

Description:
Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd with a focus on security and reliability. Among others, it offers support for on-demand disk buffering, reliable syslog over TCP, SSL, TLS and RELP, writing to databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and many more), email alerting, fully configurable output formats (including high-precision timestamps), the ability to filter on any part of the syslog message, on-the-wire message compression, and the ability to convert text files to syslog. It is a drop-in replacement for stock syslogd and able to work with the same configuration file syntax. Its advanced features make it suitable for enterprise-class, encryption protected syslog relay chains while at the same time being very easy to setup for the novice user.

Revision:426016Original commit files touched by this commit This port version is marked as vulnerable.		 matthew search for other commits by this committer 
MFH: r425998

recvmmsg(2) is buggy in 11.0-RELEASE, but not recent 11-STABLE or HEAD
-- the consequence for rsyslog being that it does not record any log
messages received via UDP to a log file.

recvmmsg(2) fix was applied to HEAD in r307036 and MFC'd to 11-STABLE
in r307311.  Therefore prevent configure testing for recvmmsg(2)
before OSVERSION 1100504.  Note: this is a no-op for older releases
than 11 -- recvmmsg(2) doesn't exist there.
