Thank you very much for the prompt reply Ralph. As far as I can see, the SyslogAppender class does not expose a way to access these attributes. So, if there is no other way of accessing these attributes, then I am not able to retrieve the attributes that I want from the existing SyslogAppender implementation. If I understand correctly, correct me if I am wrong, I might have to create my own that exposes these attributes.
