Hi,

I am using syslog-ng open source (syslog-ng-3.0.3-1.rhel5.amd64) for log collection. I want to pass the syslog-ng machine ip address in the message header. in the current configuration I am getting following header in the log message -->

Sep 29 00:24:20 INBLRECIS2871 ''

In the above message "INBLRECIS2871" is the syslog-ng machine name but I want the IP address in place of machine name. let me know how to achieve this ?

Current configurastion -->

1) syslog-ng client config :->

options {
mark_freq(30);
log_msg_size(65530);
}

destination d_messages {
syslog("3.2.20.26" transport("tcp") port(601) template("$HOST $MSGHDR$MSG ::::$FILE_NAME"));

}

2) syslog-ng server config->

options {
        time_reap(30);
        mark_freq(10);
        log_msg_size(65530);
}

Regards,

Vaibhav
