Hi Ken,

Both should work but for the second case you need to call parse_syslog()
first, otherwise $Message is undefined.

1.
 <Output out>
   Module om_udp
    Host x.x.x.x
    Port 514
    Exec $raw_event = $raw_event + "Project X";
 </Output>

2.
 <Output out>
   Module om_udp
    Host x.x.x.x
    Port 514
    <Exec>
       parse_syslog();
       $Message = $Message + "Project X";
       to_syslog_bsd();
    </Exec>
 </Output>

Regards,
Botond
