Hi,

I'm using syslog-ng 2.0.9 as a central logging server with destination like this: destination r_messages { file ("/logpool/logs/$DAY$MONTH$YEAR/$HOST_$DAY$MONTH$YEAR$_$HOUR"); };

But I get this: #ls /logpool/logs/05012009 0501200910

HOST is not expanded and _ before $HOUR is missing . What is special about underscore ?

While using destination r_messages { file ("/logpool/logs/$DAY$MONTH$YEAR/$HOST-$DAY$MONTH$YEAR$-$HOUR"); }; everything is fine:

# ls /logpool/logs/05012009/ 10.96.47.233-05012009-10

I would prefer to use an underscore if I could.

Use ${VARIABLE1}_${VARIABLE2} and so on. Regards, Sandor -------------------------------------------------------- NOTICE: If received in error, please destroy and notify sender. Sender does not intend to waive confidentiality or privilege. Use of this email is prohibited when received in error.
