[syslog-ng] Keeping hostname when forwarding

I have keep_hostname(yes) set in my global options, and 
no other mention of it anywhere else in my config.
 
However, when I look at the remote system's logs, they 
are all tagged with the ip address of my syslog-ng host.
 
I'm just trying to forward Cisco syslogs from my machine 
to another one, and using a filter for local7 is working 
great.  I just need to figure out why the actual host 
is not being detected.
 
Thanks,
Paul
