You haven't said what would you have it do when there's no hostname in the incoming message (as is the case here). Would you have it fall back to using the IP of the remote system? Maybe that's not a bad idea. Anyways, the FAQ states that creating files based on hostnames in syslog messages is bad: http://www.campin.net/syslog-ng/faq.html#bad_filenames ...and I happen to agree with it (oh wait - I wrote that! ;). -- Nate Real programmers never work 9 to 5. If any real programmers are around at 9 am, it's because they were up all night.
