Hi,

I'm trying to filter based on the host which is sending the syslog
data. I've tried this based around hostname and fromhost, but both
only contain the node name, not the full hostname.

I suspected this could be because the rsyslog server is running on the
same domain as the host doing the reporting, but my /etc/resolv.conf
does not have any reference to the domain, so I cannot see why rsyslog
would shorten the full hostname to just the node name. Resolving the
IP address from the command line returns the full hostname. I've seen
messages from Rainer saying that rsyslog uses the systems resolving
capacity, so I can't see why it should be any different.

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?
