Licences
--------

My intention is to release the files I created under a Creative
Commons 2.5 Sharealike Licence. I don't care much about attribution,
since it is required  the attribution name is "Paul Nijjar". If you
would prefer other licencing terms then please contact me. 

So long as you don't copy-and-paste anything, I think you are allowed
to look at the LaTeX sources for inspiration and then release your own
presentation under any terms you want. (I could be wrong, though.
Licencing is hard.) 

Because I included an xkcd picture by Randall Munroe in this
presentation, the compiled presentation is actually a derivative work
of xkcd. The compiled presentation is thus released under a Creative
Commons 2.5 Noncommercial Sharealike Licence. If you exclude this
clipart then the compiled presentation is released under a Creative
Commons 2.5 Sharealike Licence. 

The picture pix/comix/regular_expressions.png is copyright Randall
Munroe at xkcd.com, and is released under a Creative Commons 2.5
Noncommercial Licence. The picture
pix/png/regular-expressions-clipped.png is released under a Creative
Commons 2.5 Noncommercial Licence. 

The files in pix/clipart/ are all public domain and remain so. 


Instructions
------------

To compile this LaTeX presentation, use the following: cd tmp pdflatex
../2009-08-10-syslog-servers.tex 

This will give you a 2009-08-10-syslog-servers.pdf file in the tmp/
directory. You may have to run the command a couple of times for all
of the navigation to generate. 

Many of the slides will complain about overfull vboxes and hboxes. In
general this is because the picture boundaries overfill what LaTeX
thinks is reasonable. 

Too many of the slides are marked "fragile". The only ones that need
to be fragile are ones that use \codeblock{} statements. 

Some of the Inkscape files may break because not all of the clipart
inclusions were relative. I tried to fix what I could, though. 

The scenario slides at the beginning were created with layers, as were
the DHCP file list screenshots. 

The "conf-eg" directory contains some of the rsyslog and tenshi
configuration files I used in the presentation. 

The presentation has been successfully compiled with the tools in
Debian Lenny (although the presentation was originally created in
Debian Sarge, which required a few TeX addons).
