Ah that reminds me an issue I have. On my central logging machine, I
filter logs by hostname. However, it appears sometimes my dns fails so
it doesn't get a hostname and the logs with the IP address escape the
filter. If I could filter based on the client's certificate
hostname, that would be much more reliable!
