Hi! The following patch adds the Macros $UNIXTIME, $S_UNIXTIME and $R_UNIXTIME. They give you the time in the internal unix time format (seconds since 1970 or so). Since it is useful for me, it is probably useful for others, too. This patch is against syslog-ng-1.5.14 with my sourceip127-patch (which I posted on 05.Feb.2002), but will also work with the plain syslog-ng-1.5.14 sources (with an offset of -3 lines). Balazs, please include this patch in the next release if you find it useful. Greetings Gert
