It's looking like the facility, priority information has been lost after syslogd evaluation or by going through the pipe. (All events go only to /dev/null destination)
Have you tried to log the messages read from the pipe without the filter to a file and post an example of the log entries to this mailling list ? I've a similar problem on AIX (5.3 ML3) where the system syslog daemon writes its messages to a named pipe and syslog ng should read from it. But for some odd reason AIX syslog adds the FACILITY and LEVEL to the log message which causes that the LEVEL field "shifts" to the right. Therefore Syslog-NG isn't able to parse this correctly, because it interpreted the FACILITY entry as program name ... I don't know what causes this, because I can't reproduce this problem on AIX 5.2 or below. regards Jochen
