Hi All, My syslog-ng server reports various directories based off of kernel-messages instead of hostnames. I've read the listserv and tried the various options suggested by to no avail. Perhaps someone can help with a suggestion as to what is going wrong here? Info: syslog-ng-1.5.17-1 config file looks like options { use_fqdn(yes); keep_hostname(no); use_dns(yes); long_hostnames(on); sync(3); log_fifo_size(1000); }; ... destination hosts { file("/var/log/HOSTS/$HOST/$FACILITY/$YEAR/$MONTH/$DAY/$FACILITY$YEAR$MONTH$DAY" owner(root) group(root) perm(0600) dir_perm(0700) create_dirs(yes)); }; ... log { source(src); destination(hosts); }; Directories look like this: /var/log/HOSTS ?for ?set host.auckland.ac.nz Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can't figure out where to go next.
