Have you tried to log the messages read from the pipe without the filter
to a file and post an example of the log entries to this mailling list ? <br>
<br>
I've a similar problem on AIX (5.3 ML3) where the system syslog daemon writes
its messages to a named pipe<br>
and syslog ng should read from it. But for some odd reason AIX syslog adds the
FACILITY and LEVEL to the log message <br>
which causes that the LEVEL field "shifts" to the right.<br>
Therefore Syslog-NG isn't able to parse this correctly, because it interpreted
the FACILITY entry as program name ...<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><font size=3

this, because I can't reproduce this problem on AIX 5.2 or below.<br>
