hi,

you should try to replace (in your destination declaration)
file ("/logs/hosts/${HOST}/${HOST}-${YEAR}${MONTH}${DAY}");

by

file ("/logs/hosts/server");

... and also understand what your doing, of course ... ;)

Sorry for misleading you, it is logged to /logs/hosts/10.128.240.100
but I would like to log it to /logs/hosts/server where i issued telnet

Thanks,
Stefan
