Hi all,

Need some help regarding filename that use $facility variable. For some reason the facility variable was set to 'a' during file naming convention. I don't recall to have 'a' as a facility on remote server. What could be the issue here? This only happen on Solaris syslog-ng server. Others OS seem ok. 

Config sample:
destination d_remoteall {file ("/syslog/$sourceip@$facility@$r_year:$r_month:$r_day:" create_dirs(yes) perm(0644));};

Sample output:
10.10.10.1 at a@2014:03:05.gz

I'm running syslog-ng version 3.0.2.

Thanks.

Regards,
Feroz Basir
