Add tests/service_testing/test_instance_seed.py — pins NODE_NAME to assert
determinism of seeded functions and sweeps NODE_NAMEs to assert cross-fleet
divergence. Conftest gains load_real_instance_seed() so template tests see
the real seeding behavior instead of a stub. Existing template tests updated
to pin NODE_NAME and match seeded outputs.
Rename the container-side logging module decnet_logging → syslog_bridge
(canonical at templates/syslog_bridge.py, synced into each template by
the deployer). Drop the stale per-template copies; setuptools find was
picking them up anyway. Swap useradd/USER/chown "decnet" for "logrelay"
so no obvious token appears in the rendered container image.
Apply the same cloaking pattern to the telnet template that SSH got:
syslog pipe moves to /run/systemd/journal/syslog-relay and the relay
is cat'd via exec -a "systemd-journal-fwd". rsyslog.d conf rename
99-decnet.conf → 50-journal-forward.conf. SSH capture script:
/var/decnet/captured → /var/lib/systemd/coredump (real systemd path),
logger tag decnet-capture → systemd-journal. Compose volume updated
to match the new in-container quarantine path.
SD element ID shifts decnet@55555 → relay@55555; synced across
collector, parser, sniffer, prober, formatter, tests, and docs so the
host-side pipeline still matches what containers emit.
MongoDB had the same infinite-loop bug as MSSQL (msg_len=0 → buffer never
shrinks in while loop). Postgres, MySQL, and MQTT had related length-field
issues (stuck state, resource exhaustion, overlong remaining-length).
Also fixes an existing MongoDB _op_reply struct.pack format bug (extra 'q'
specifier caused struct.error on any OP_QUERY response).
Adds 53 regression + protocol boundary tests across MSSQL, MongoDB,
Postgres, MySQL, and MQTT, including a _run_with_timeout threading harness
to catch infinite loops and @pytest.mark.fuzz hypothesis tests for each.
