<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hi, <br><br></div>The easiest way to drop the timestamp is on the syslog-ng server side, where you write the message into a file. There you can use a template, something like the one below.

<br>
I would like send UDP message to the syslog server without timestamp.<br>
<br>
I readed RFC3164 and RFC5424 and syslog-ng-ose-guide-admin.pdf.<br>
<br>
The new "RFC 5424 (also called the IETF-syslog protocol): see Section 2.8.2,<br>
IETF-syslog messages (p. 13)" support NIL values "-" in HEADER.<br>
<br>
I sended this "<110>1 - hostname procname procid - - Message"<br>
<br>
The syslog-ng server logged this:<br>
<br>
"Sep 21 19:29:54 h164-19 1: - hostname procname procid - - Message"<br>
<br>
Question:<br>
What is wrong in my message string?<br>
The syslog-ng server why do not decode "1" after ">" as version?<br>
Can i send old syslog message (RFC3164) without timestamp?<br>
<br>
Best Regards<br>
