I found a thread from about 5 years ago where someone wanted to forward messages untouched to another system, but there never was a follow up to say if it was possible. I need to do that, but the messages are still getting to the remote system with my ip address as the source. I have the keep_hostnames(yes) global option set, and I'm still having the problem. Is there any other option I may not know about to do this? Do I need to set up another syslog-ng enabled server and have that system read from there instead of me forwarding the events right to that machine's port?
