Re: [syslog-ng]relaying logs

I have a firewall that receives logs over TCP for one host, logs locally, and forwards all logs over UDP to another host inside a private network.

The logs forwarded over UDP from the relay are all being logged on the inside host with the hostname of the relaying box.

I used this on the gateway box:

options { chain_hostnames(yes); long_hostnames(off); sync(0); };

Doesn't the chain_hostnames variable control this? What do I need to do?

chain_hostnames is equivalent to long_hostnames, so you turn it on and off :), and the last one is significant. -- Bazsi PGP info: KeyID 9AF8D0A9 Fingerprint CD27 CFB0 802C 0944 9CFD 804E C82C 8EB1 url: http://www.balabit.hu/pgpkey.txt
