[syslog-ng] using a logfile per host, with it's own name

[Jacco Rens]

Hi List-members,

I just started using syslog-ng, and I am still not confident with the  
technique to write the config files.

What I basically want, is every host that send the udp syslog, to log  
in it's own file. Hereunder is what I have now, but that seems not to  
do the trick. Maybe there's an better technique for this? And I don't  
want the program, where '/var/log/HOSTS/$HOST/' is used.


Best,
Jacco

         use_dns(no);

         long_hostnames(off);
         sync(1);
         log_fifo_size(1024);
         create_dirs(yes);
};
