Hello all. I'm using the spoof source feature to centralize my logs to a server. I was hoping that the server will receive the IP message with the source IP address from the source(spoofed of course), but it get it as the source address the syslog-ng server and the spoofed IP address in the message content. Is there a way I can generate the message not with the original source IP as a description, but to have it actually as the IP message.

* spoof_source supports UDP only * you need to run syslog-ng as root for spoof_source to work * if there's an error in spoof-source sending, UDP falls back to non-spoofed sending -- Bazsi
