I put two destinations in a log block, but it doesn't log to both places.
Is there a trick to doing this?
two log blocks.

destination hosts {

file("/var/syslog/HOSTS/$HOST/$YEAR/$MONTH/$HOST-$FACILITY-$YEAR$MONTH$DAY"
    owner(root) group(root) perm(0755) dir_perm(0755) create_dirs(yes));
};

destination bulklog {
    file("/var/syslog/AGGREGATE/$YEAR/$MONTH/$FACILITY-$YEAR$MONTH$DAY"
    owner(root) group(root) perm(0755) dir_perm(0755) create_dirs(yes));
};

log { source(external); destination(bulklog); };
log { source(external); destination(hosts); };
