[syslog-ng] host$

[SOLIS, ALEX]

My syslog-ng setup will resolve to hostnames as long as the
/etc/resolv.conf or /etc/hosts entries are valid.  If you ping the hosts
logging to your box by IP does it resolve to the hostname?

I used an RPM to install syslog-ng - could I get away with downloading
the 
source, compile it and replace the syslog-ng bin?

Yeah, I've read about FC4 being much better for syslog-ng.  I'm about
ready 
to start over using the FC4 test3 iso's but didn't know what happens
once 
fc4 is released as far as installing the new released version.
