[syslog-ng] Problem with hostnames!

[mrgenius]

Yes here is the portion of my syslog-ng.cong
 #####################################
 
options { sync (0);
time_reopen (10);
log_fifo_size (1000);
long_hostnames (yes);
use_dns (yes);
use_fqdn (yes);
create_dirs (no);
keep_hostname (no);
};

source sys { unix-stream ("/dev/log"); internal(); };
source net { 
udp(ip(0.0.0.0 <http://0.0.0.0>) port(514) );
};


destination d_mysql {
pipe("/tmp/mysql.pipe"
template("INSERT INTO logs
(host, facility, priority, level, tag, datetime, program, msg)
VALUES ( '$HOST', '$FACILITY', '$PRIORITY', '$LEVEL', '$TAG', 
'$YEAR-$MONTH-$DAY $HOUR:$MIN:$SEC',
'$PROGRAM', '$MSG' );\n") template-escape(yes));
};
log { source(net); destination(d_mysql);

  But if you say that syslog-ng first queries DNS Server ... then why it is 
resolving names for all public Ips which i defined in /etc/hosts and those 
public Ips have no entries in my defined DNS Servers.
 i am quite confused how this thing is actually working??
