I found out, that the chain_hostnames(yes) makes problems here although
keep_hostname was turned off both times!

a) chain_hostnames(no):
	proxy.d.westend.com.2002-03-05
		Mar  5 13:22:54 proxy.d.westend.com slapd....
b) chain_hostnames(yes):
	proxy.2002-03-05
		Mar  5 13:19:39 src@proxy/proxy.d.westend.com slapd...

Konfigurations:
 collector, syslog-ng 2.5.13:
	 long_hostnames(yes);
	 use_dns(yes);
	 use_fqdn(yes);
	 keep_hostname(no);
 exporter, syslog-ng 2.5.15
	long_hostnames(yes);
        use_dns(yes);  
	use_fqdn(yes);
	keep_hostname(yes);
        cain_hostnames(no);

bye,
