[syslog-ng] pattern matching against raw input?

[Robert Fekete]

Hi Glen,

Try setting the flags(no-parse) option on your source 
(http://www.balabit.com/dl/html/syslog-ng-ose-v3.1-guide-admin-en.html/ch06s01.html#reference_source_tcpudp).
That way syslog-ng will put all incoming data into the MESSAGE part without 
parsing, and add a syslog header (timestamp, etc.).
I think that was what you meant.

Regards,

Robert
