Syslog messages are simple text messages that are sent via UDP to a syslog server. Under Linux,
normally a syslog daemon is already running (eg. syslog-ng), for Microsoft Windows systems some
freeware programs are available on the market. The syslog messages are sent for the following
events:
·
Switching of digital output ports
·
Exceeding of the max / min values ?
?
of attached sensors
·
State change of digital sensor input ports
·
Exceeding of max / min values ?
?
of the measured power consumption

Currently, only SMTP servers are supported, that are offering no authentication (open-relay) or unen-
crypted authentication (PLAIN). An encrypted authentication to the SMTP server is not possible.
An experienced user can learn whether the desired SMTP server understands the PLAIN authentica-
tion, by sending the string "EHLO localhost" with Telnet to the server. Here's an example:
$ telnet smtp.1und1.com 25
Trying 212.227.15.129...
Connected to smtp.1und1.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 smtp.1und1.com (mreu3) Welcome to Nemesis ESMTP server

250-STARTTLS
250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN <---- *PLAIN* *SUPPORTED!*

Email messages are triggered by the following events:
·
Switching of digital output ports
·
Exceeding of the max / min values of the attached sensors
·
State change of digital sensor input ports
·
Exceeding of max / min value of the measured power consumption
