[syslog-ng] syslog-ng premium "$HOST" issue

[Arya, Manish Kumar]

oops this forked to another issue ;-)

now actual hostnames are getting inserted in oracle db, so syslog-ng premium is counting these hostnames against license limits :-(

we have 2 more offical licenses for 50 hosts I fear this is not going to work for us :( we have thousands of hosts in our network.

any idea of cost for unlimited hosts license ?
