This actually makes logical sense but I don't think that the effect is desired.
If you by mistake (like me!) set up a udpspoof rule that matches log messages from localhost, the source IP sent on the network will be 127.0.0.1. You can't fix this without hard setting a source address in a template. This probably falls under "Don't do that!" but it's definitely an odd effect that perhaps should be modified in a future release? -- Jo Rhett Net Consonance : net philanthropy to improve open source and internet projects. _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
