Thanks - I am trying my best ;) And, if you have not already done so, I'd appreciate if you could rate rsyslog at freshmeat.net, it's just a simple click (even if you need to create an account it doesn't take long). It helps us get momentum and this is as important as code quality ;) You can do it here (middle of the page): http://freshmeat.net/projects/rsyslog/ > > > It also looks like I was wrong ;) I have reviewed the case.

OK, that was fairly easy to do. I have created a special version for you: http://download.rsyslog.com/rsyslog/rsyslog-3.21.2-Test1.tar.gz It contains a new config directive that allows you to specify the hostname, see last sample on http://www.rsyslog.com/doc-imuxsock.html In my lab it works, but I would appreciate if you could test and verify.
