Syslog4j provides Java components for client and server implementations of the syslog protocol (RFC 3164). UDP/IP, TCP/IP, TCP/IP over SSL/TLS, Unix Syslog, and Unix Socket Logging are supported. Advanced options are provided, including cryptographic message signatures and hashes. It is heavily tested with JUnit and Emma code coverage.
libsyslogp is a library for parsing raw syslog messages. It currently supports RFC 3164 style BSD syslog messages (and some minor variants), and has limited support for newer RFC 5424 style syslog messages. This library has been written because there seem to be no independent C libraries for parsing raw syslog messages. The most complicated part of the task is to parse the date, which comes in a variety of formats; the source code for the built-in message parser of syslog-ng proved to be an invaluable reference for this. Nevertheless, the implementation here is independent of syslog-ng.
Graylog2 is an syslog implementation that stores logs in MongoDB. Messages are accepted via TCP or UDP. A Web interface allows you to view the log messages. It also implements GELF, the Graylog Extended Log Format, which is a simple JSON string that allows you to send long and structured syslog messages, which is very useful for customized application log monitoring.
LILA is a command line tool that allows you to monitor netfilter logs stored in a MySQL database in real time. It converts the text messages created by netfilter into nice colored output. Two features that should be highlighted are that it resolves IP addresses to hostnames with two different techniques and detects duplicate packets (with the same destination IP and chain) that have been sent in a freely configurable time interval. This allow the user to avoid getting flooded with hundreds of identical packets that don't offer any additional information. It uses a separate configuration file, which allows you to modify various aspects on how it works and how logs are being displayed. It has a lot of other features.
ida-syslog is a Web-based viewer for syslog data. It requires syslog data in a MySQL database. It uses AJAX and is based on jQuery and PHP. It is intended for use with rsyslog-mysql, but can be adapted to any table format via the config file. It has a fast UI with no page reloads, and can save search settings as templates for easy reuse. Tail mode and auto-loading of older entries when scrolling down. Fixes for use with Windows-Syslog-Tools (NTSyslog2, Snare).
Cura is a mobile phone application bundle of remote server administration tools. It provides a personalized terminal emulator, a syslog module that allows for reading logs directly from a server, a SysMonitor module that visually graphs CPU and RAM usage percentages, access to Nmap, and Server Stats will offer general server information like its Vitals, Hardware information, Memory information, processes, and so on. A security feature allows you to have Cura's database wiped when you send the compromised phone a secret pattern of your choosing. (e.g. send an SMS message containing "phone has been stolen!" to your Android phone to wipe Cura's database and receive the location of the compromised phone as an SMS to your emergency phone number or as an e-mail to your emergency email address).
