[syslog-ng] Issues with lowercase hostname on 3.2.5

[Kay N. Avila]

Hello,

I'm running syslog-ng 3.2.5 from EPEL on RHEL and having an issue with
the $HOST variable.

My destination is destination device_log {
file("/<snipped>/$HOST.log"); }; and that is working, except the file
is created with an uppercase name if the host reports it that way.
I'd like them to all be consistently lowercase.  I can't use a DNS
look up instead since not all of the hosts have reverse DNS set for
their IPs.

I've tried normalize-hostnames(yes); in the global options but it
doesn't seem to make a difference.  Also I don't believe $(lowercase
...) is available to me in 3.2.5.

I've read through the documentation and have come up empty.  What am I
missing?  Apologies if this has been asked before; I searched the list
but couldn't find anything.

Thanks for any pointers,
Kay Avila
