[syslog-ng] Parameter MSGONLY in syslog-ng.conf doesn't work properly

[Tob_Sch at gmx.de]

Hi,

we compiled libol-0.3.17 / syslog-ng-1.6.9 on AIX 5.3.

When using following entry in syslog-ng.conf:

destination tempfile { file("/tmp/syslog-ng-test.log"
template("$YEAR-$MONTH-$DAY $HOUR:$MIN:$SEC $HOST $MSG\n")
template-escape(yes)); };


tail -f /tmp/syslog-ng-test.log
:
2006-03-16 12:36:39 aixserver auth|security:info sshd[258116]: Connection
from 111.111.111.111 port 48948
:




When using following entry in syslog-ng.conf:

destination tempfile { file("/tmp/syslog-ng-test.log"
template("$YEAR-$MONTH-$DAY $HOUR:$MIN:$SEC $HOST $MSGONLY\n")
template-escape(yes)); };


tail -f /tmp/syslog-ng-test.log
:
2006-03-16 12:38:47 aixserver nfo sshd[143710]: Connection from
111.111.111.111 port 64747

If the destination is not a tempfile but a socket on a remote server, the
remote syslog-ng daemon ignores both logs produced with the help parameter
$MSG and $MSGONLY.



Thanks in advance for help or a patch.
