-----------------------------------

             Summary: SyslogOutputStream ignores IP address changes for Syslog 
DNS host
                 Key: LOGBACK-1475
                 URL: https://jira.qos.ch/browse/LOGBACK-1475
             Project: logback
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: logback-core
    Affects Versions: 1.2.3
            Reporter: Simon Dean
            Assignee: Logback dev list


The SyslogOutputStream converts the syslogHost to an IP address within its 
constructor.  This means that it only performs a DNS resolution for the Syslog 
host once, at start up.  If the IP address of the System host changes (and is 
updated in the DNS system) this class will never pick up the change. 

The suggested fix is to move the DNS resolution from the constructor into the 
flush method.
