Re: Selective application of keep-hostname()?

Hello,

The keep-hostname cannot be applied based on message content. You could do exactly as you stated with multiple sources,
or as an alternative use a rewrite to set hostname conditionally.
First set keep-hostname to yes, and add a conditional *set* to use $HOST_FROM value.

        rewrite {
                set("$HOST_FROM" value("HOST") condition("${SOURCEIP}" eq "127.0.0.1"));
        };

Subject: [syslog-ng] Selective application of keep-hostname()?

I have a use case where I need to selectively apply keep-hostname(yes)
to messages from certain source IPs, while defaulting to
keep-hostname(no) for the rest of my sources. I know I can apply this
option on a per-source basis, but in this case I want to be able to
selectively apply this option based on the source IP of the message. I'm
trying to avoid having to set up an alternate port if I can.

Thanks
Steve
