OpenXDAS 0.5.257

OpenXDAS is an open source implementation of the OpenGroups Distributed Auditing System. The XDAS standard was defined in 1998 by an OG working group with representation from several software companies supporting various flavors of Unix and other operating systems.
XDAS was never taken beyond preliminary specification - probably due to a general lack of enthusiasm in the world on the subject of auditing. Nevertheless, XDAS was designed by experts in the field of auditing and security-related logging services.
Enhancements:
- Added netstream logger. Currently the netstream logger allows you to send clear text formatted as CRLF-terminated lines to service listening on a configured port number on a local or remote server. Eventually, this service will also support generic SSL connections using openssl.
- Fixed a number of oversights in the Windows MSI installer. Missing files added, versioning corrected, etc.
- Added a new library that allows an application to link statically to a very small stub library which dynamically loads and initializes the actually libxdas instrumentation library. This feature allows an application to consume, but not depend on the existence of the OpenXDAS service.
